Rudy vs. The Rookie
|
|
|
When I think of great sports movies, I instantly think of Rudy and The Rookie. These two movies depict life through the eyes of a struggling athlete trying to achieve a goal that many people said would never happen. Rudy is about a football player at the University of Notre Dame struggling to make the varsity team, but no matter how hard he tries he never seems to make it. People told Rudy his whole life he would never be good enough to play for any college team, let alone Notre Dame. Rudy eventually proves everybody wrong, including his parents, when he dresses and plays in the final game of his life. The Rookie is about a baseball player struggling to make it professionally after a career threatening injury to his pitching arm. Jim Morris actually gives up on his dream and becomes a high school coach not having any idea what his team would teach him. Even though these two movies deal with different sports, they both prove that people should never give up on their dreams. Rudy is a classic film about a boy who always had a dream of playing football for the University of Notre Dame. Daniel “Rudy” Ruettiger was told his whole life that he would never be good enough to play football for Notre Dame.
