It proves that you can tell a story without going into the gutter. I'm surprised that it was even able to be made!

Although he only lived for 22 years on planet earth Freddie Joe Steinmark touched a whole lot of lives and still does today in the great state of Texas. As an Australian who knows absolutely nothing about American football (rugby union, rugby league and Australian football are our three types of football) this was a wonderful tearjerker of a movie. "We would not have been national champions if you had not been on that field." “My All American,” written by the same screenwriter as “Rudy” and “Hoosiers,” is about the short life of “Game of the Century” University of Texas football safety Freddie Joe Steinmark.Steinmark, who died at the age of 22 of cancer, was a member of the 1969 UT National Champion and Cotton Bowl Classic winning football team. It is a wonderful example of the true team spirit that can be found if we try and the keep on trying attitude of those who succeed in life. My All American, the inspiring football drama centered around UT’s 1969 national championship-winning team and two of its heroes, coach Darrell K Royal and defensive back Freddie Steinmark, is set to start filming this month in Austin.
Well, it turned out much better than I ever could have asked for.

He's going to have tons of babies with his high school sweetie on the side. He entered into a coma preventing their marriage. I wish there had been less of the Christian faith underlying tone but it was still good. This may have smacked of the Ozzie and Harriet days but, what's wrong with that? I would ask what he was like, and their answer would be, ‘perfect.’ “Sign up for our newsletter to get the latest adventures, workouts, destinations, and more.Men’s Journal has affiliate partnerships so we may receive compensation for some links to products and services. 19 out of 22 found this helpful. If you're not American, don't be put off. He's their version of the Gipper for those University of Texas Longhorns.

It is the type of movie that makes you wish you had someone like Freddie Steinmark on your team. 14 out of 37 found this helpful. Was this review helpful? 2 out of 2 found this helpful.

What a nice break from filth this was! My father is depicted by Aaron Eckhart.

I wish I could have met him. Was this review helpful? Jk. I have no expectation and no information about the real character Freddie Steinmark. Altho I consider it a faith-based film, it was not preachy or overbearing in its message. What an emotional great ride My All American is.

Greetings again from the darkness. The true story of a young man who unfortunately had a very short life but managed to inspire generations. Filmmaker Angelo Pizzo penned such iconic sports films as “I started to actually weep as I read it,” Pizzo admits. Freddie seems like a underdog as his body does not measure up to his heart, but Freddie proves that sometimes heart is all you need, and when the world tossed him a bad pass, he still stood up tall. .

Anyway, the acting was pretty good but I have to agree with other reviews about the make up on "old" Aaron Eckhart... it was pretty bad and his acting as the old man pretty cringeworthy!

Sure, we all know that all kinds of language is used in a football camp, and we certainly know what sex scenes are all about since we are inundated with them in almost every film. In terms of finding someone to look up to, heroes are scarce in American cinema. I'm a University of Texas alumnus and have vivid childhood memories of Freddie Steinmark the player, followed by Freddie Steinmark the tragedy, and finally Freddie Steinmark the inspiration.
