George Clooney wears two hats, or in the case of this winning gridiron romp, one hat and one helmet, as both director and star. He plays Dodge Connolly, a 1920s pro-footballer who tries to save his floundering squad by signing a college star (John Krasinski) to help get the team on track and, more important, turn a profit. Renee Zellweger costars as a reporter who becomes the object of affection for both. Randy Newman, who composed the film score, has a cameo as a speakeasy piano player., Good Night, and Good Luck director George Clooney pulls double duty once again in this sports-oriented romantic comedy set against the formation of professional football in the 1920s. Dodge Connelly (Clooney) is a brash and handsome gridiron giant who is equally comfortable leading his team in a barroom brawl or charging for a touchdown in a packed stadium. But when Connelly’s team loses their sponsor and the entire league appears set to collapse, the quick-thinking jock attempts a creative late-game comeback. If Connelly can convince former college football star and decorated war hero Carter Rutherford (John Krasinski) to join the team, there may be hope for the ill-fated team after all. Back in World War I, Rutherford single-handedly forced the surrender of multiple German soldiers — a feat that firmly established the dashing young soldier as America’s favorite son. Not only that, but Rutherford’s unparalleled speed makes him a valuable asset to the team. To cub reporter Lexie Littleton (Renée Zellweger), Rutherford seems simply too good to be true, and she’s determined to prove that her theory is correct. As Littleton digs deep into Rutherford’s past, the two teammates enter into a fierce competition for her erratic affections. Now, as Connelly’s plan begins to work better than he ever could have anticipated, the rowdy sport he always loved starts to take on a whole new look and feel. In the midst of holding his team together and simultaneously charming the girl of his dreams, Connelly discovers he may be able to use the same strategies he does to win on the field to win in love. Of course, there might be a few fouls as this game enters the fourth quarter, but like every good player, Connelly knows the value of always having a secret play to fall back on before the final score is called., Sneaky gridiron coach Jimmy hires Carter to be his star. Then they both fall for the same girl., In 1925, an enterprising pro football player convinces America’s too-good-to-be-true college football hero to play for his team and keep the league from going under., A love triangle breaks out when a hard-drinking 1920s pro-football player signs an All-American college star and war hero to help his floundering franchise, and they both fall for a rookie reporter.
