The Big Game (1936)

Passed 09 Oct 1936 • Drama, Romance, Sport • 1h 14m

Gamblers kidnap Atlantic's star quarterback Clark Jenkins. The plot is typical but the on-field action is pretty good featuring real players using some actual footage. The idea for the riot scene came from an actual brawl at an NYU-Fordham football game.
