Rudy (1993)
This is the true story of Daniel “Rudy” Ruettiger, and undersized kid who works his way on to the Notre Dame football squad. Okay, so it’s not the most cerebral football movie on the panel, but so what? What it lacks in sophistication it more than makes up for in heart and spirit.
Plus, it’s written by Angelo Pizzo and directed by David Anspaugh, two seasoned pros at crafting feel goodsports movies (Hoosiers, The Game of Their Lives).
Oh, and guys: The goosebumps on your arm and lump in the throat you’ll experience when watching the ending are just precursors to a much larger disorder known as… bawling your eyes out.
