My All American 2015

In the late 1960s, the spirited and determined Freddie Steinmark, portrayed by Aaron Eckhart, sets out to achieve his lifelong dream of playing college football, driven by a passion that far surpasses the mere thrill of winning. As a standout high school football player, known for his relentless heart and grit, Freddie forges an unbreakable friendship with his devoted sidekick, Bobby, and his beloved sweetheart, Linda.

Despite his remarkable skills on the gridiron, Freddie’s shorter stature presents a daunting challenge in his pursuit of collegiate football glory. Just as his family nears the point of giving up on his ambitions, an unexpected lifeline arrives from his high school coach, who reveals that the esteemed University of Texas at Austin has taken an interest in Freddie’s undeniable talent.

In a twist of fate, the legendary head coach Darrell Royal, played by Robin Tunney, offers both Freddie and his best friend Bobby a chance to join the Longhorns. With Linda by their side, they embark on a journey through the complexities of college life, facing various trials both on the field and in their personal lives.

Together, they overcome obstacles, turning their team’s losing streak around to make a stunning entrance into the 1969 Cotton Bowl Classic. Yet, as the pressure mounts, Freddie’s body begins to falter when he receives the devastating news that he has cancer. Faced with this life-altering diagnosis, he must confront the harsh reality that his dreams of football glory hang in a precarious balance.
