Knute Rockne---All American

(1940)

Synopsis

Biopic about Knute Rockne (1888-1931), with Pat O'Brien as the legendary Notre Dame football player and coach, and Ronald Reagan as the gone-too-soon gridiron great George Gipp. Despite a blitz of macho blustering, don't be surprised if the tears flow during O'Brien's "win just one for the Gipper" speech.
