A review by CyrusPK
Written by CyrusPK on 2020-07-19
I saw this Universal film (from the same year as Frankenstein) on a very degraded print on You Tube.

The film works well though at capturing a moment in history, showing the American Football talents of Notre Dame at a point in time immediately after the death of their well regarded coach, Knute Rockne. Indeed Rockne was on his way to Hollywood to be an advisor on this film when the plane he was in crashed, ending a legendary career. He is portrayed in this film simply as the un-named character of 'Coach' played by an actor who bares a close resemblance to the Rockne of later years.
