Editorial Review:
Amazon.com: Brendan Fraser plays a student attending a wealthy boarding school on a football scholarship in the 1950s. When the other kids find out he's Jewish--a fact he's been hiding--his fortunes and relationships instantly change. The film is pretty much what one would expect with that scenario: a story of bigotry, conflict, the hero trying to hang on. In the end, good intentions are the driving force of the movie, but it is not much more than the sum of its obvious parts. Directed by Dick Wolf, creator of television's Law and Order. --Tom Keogh

Watch this movie, and then talk about it with people whom you respect. When the movie ends, we realize the story isn't really over. Cinematically this forces us to question what's going to happen next, and should beg discussion by the audience.
If you read the other reviews (especially the negative reviews) before watching this movie you'll probably wonder how this seemingly formulaic prep-school movie could be as good as it is. Well, here's the answer: the movie was not meant to ... Read More

This is a very fine movie,well acted, once one clears the initial premise:imagine a strict Catholic Prep School of the 1950's admitting anyone who wasn't Catholic regardless of his football prowess.Once past that hurdle, it's clear sailing for the viewer.Fraser,as expected, lives up to his reputation on the field and in the classroom, and also steals Damon's girlfriend. Damon comes from a long line of Harvard graduates,and in succession is forced to play "second fiddle" to Fraser on the ... Read More

OK, so right away, have to disclose that i was an extra on this shoot for three months growing up in Boston. My perspective is a bit askew, with nostalgia and personal bias. But re-watching this movie on television the other day, a flood of memories-- and the justification for my film school education-- return.
At the time (early 90;s), the period (1955) elements were more impressive to me than the subject matter. However, that period setting also distracts at some times. The sceenplay ... Read More

I saw this movie as a young child of about 8 or 9 and I still love it today as a 23 year old. It is not one of those movies that you watch as a child but grow out of as you grow up, it is a story that sticks with you. The acting in the movie was so wonderful and realistic and you could relate to each of the character's plights. It's amazing to look at the actors in the movie then and see how far they have come in their careers now. The ending of the movie was great as well. You watch this movie and see ... Read More
