My husband knew of this Heismann trophy winner from years ago. It is as poignant today as it was then. Everyone should see it!

Nice, sad, and love story.
Nice but sad story about love among brothers that face to a very big problem. I always cry. I recommend it widely, especially to young people.

Penn State's best football player was more than just a great football player
Paterno always said that Cappelletti was the best football player he ever coached. And that includes a long list of greats. But more than that, this video shows the compassion and good will a very successful football player had for the people around him. I never me Cappelletti as I was a student after he left, but his legacy of how to live your life still makes University Park a special place. It was a great video, highly recommended.

I bought it for the grandkids
I wanted it for my 8 & 9 year old grandkids. Their whole media world seems to be meaningless hyped-up, made-up marketing for consumerism. It's all their beautiful brains know. I had read this book years ago and wanted them to experience real life triumph and trajedy. On rainy days I try my best to uncover movie gems like this to give them a better view of the real world.

It was a great inspiring story then and it hasn't changed
I saw this on TV when it was made. It was a great inspiring story then and it hasn't changed. Have a box of Kleenex handy. If you have a heart, you'll need it.

Just a burned DVD
Rather disappointed this a burned DVD. For the amount of money this cost you would think it would be a pressed DVD. If I was aware it was a burn would have downloaded it myself and burned it
