The 1993 inspirational (to idiots) sports drama, "Rudy," is based
on a true story—meaning that it’s mostly made up. Most of the
characters never existed, and all the events are misconstrued to
make it seem like this little manipulative weasel actually
accomplished something special. He didn't.
Sean Astin plays Rudy, a mediocre high school football player who
wouldn't give up until he schemed his way into the University of
Notre Dame and onto the football team. Like any true heroic
journey, the process entailed a lot of butt kissing, begging and
lying.
Jon Favreau plays D-Bob, a lecherous douche who becomes fast
friends with Rudy after realizing that, although they have
different goals, they are cut from the same repugnant cloth.
Charles S. Dutton plays Fortune, a mysterious groundskeeper with
a heart of gold who may or may not be a ghost. He doesn’t realize
how awful Rudy is, and he inadvertently mentors him throughout
the execution of his Machiavellian plan.
And weirdly Vince Vaughn is in this movie.
Join us as we discuss some incriminating facts about the
real-life Rudy, our thoughts on motivational speakers, and why
this movie should be forgotten.
