Is "All the Right Moves" by far the best high school football flick there is? Gray and dreary, they don't win the big game, no rah-rah bullshit. Always found it pitch perfect. Christ, is there even a close second? "Varsity Blues" is beyond absurd. "Wildcats" doesn't count (comedy + Coach Goldie = not a real football flick.) And as much as I love "Remember the Titans" featuring my boyfriend Denzel, it's way too hokey/Disney. "All the Right Moves." Schliiiiiiiice.
it's all that and filmed in my hometown of johnstown pa. also the best hockey film was made there. you might have heard of it. slapshot.
