father than I am to that boy.

to a big business.

It's all set up for him.
703

I had it all planned for him
to go to Ridgeville.
704

Had it arranged for him to have
the best room in the fraternity.
705
00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:06,310
Even had it fixed for him
to get his letter.

son's life, and it won't work.

He's not like you,

Nothing, Jack.
He's a fine boy.

I think someday you're going

It's...
It's unnatural.
795
00:41:20,170 --> 00:41:23,310
On the contrary, Jack, it's the
most natural thing in the world
796
00:41:23,310 --> 00:41:25,740
for children to resent
their parents.
797
00:41:25,740 --> 00:41:28,440
It's based on the fact that
from the time they're born,
798
00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:32,050
parents represent authority,
interfere with their will.
799

often resents his parents.

they had different parents,

I think I'm stuck on Terry.I'd have never guessed it.

She's the first girl
I ever had
1195
01:04:03,230 --> 01:04:05,060
that took a personal
interest in me.
1196
01:04:05,060 --> 01:04:08,190
She certainly took a personal

Cyrano de Bergerac?
1200

Didn't he play end
for Cornell?
1201
01:04:18,810 --> 01:04:21,730
No, he was a character
in a very famous play,
1202
01:04:21,730 --> 01:04:23,860
and he had a big nose
and he was very ugly.
1203
01:04:23,860 --> 01:04:26,910
He sent his best friend to talk
for him to the girl he loved
1204
01:04:26,910 --> 01:04:29,130
because he was self-conscious
about his nose.
1205
01:04:29,130 --> 01:04:31,520
So?So I'm worse than Cyrano.
1206
01:04:31,520 --> 01:04:33,960
I'm self-conscious
about all of me.

1360
01:11:08,920 --> 01:11:10,830
continues to spark
the Ridgeville team
1361
01:11:10,830 --> 01:11:12,620
as he has done today
all season,
1362
01:11:12,620 --> 01:11:15,360
the playoff for the Rose Bowl
will be between Ridgeville
1363
01:11:15,360 --> 01:11:17,580
and that great University
of California team.
1364
01:11:17,580 --> 01:11:19,840
You see that?
You couldn't have done better.
1365
01:11:19,840 --> 01:11:22,230
Very good, very good.
1366
01:11:22,230 --> 01:11:24,280
When are you gonna
send Junior in?
1367
01:11:27,020 --> 01:11:29,890
HARMON:
The teams are lining up
for the extra point now.
1368
01:11:29,890 --> 01:11:32,680
Smith will hold
and Baker will kick.
1369
01:11:32,680 --> 01:11:35,420
Get set. One, two, three!
1370
01:11:35,420 --> 01:11:37,990
HARMON:
There's the pass
from center...
1371
01:11:37,990 --> 01:11:39,510
And it's good!
1372
01:11:39,510 --> 01:11:41,990
And Ridgeville leads,
7-nothing.
1373
01:11:41,990 --> 01:11:44,390
Ladies and gentlemen,
I like to be conservative
1374
01:11:44,390 --> 01:11:46,080
when I talk about football,
1375
01:11:46,080 --> 01:11:48,570
but I would like
to make a prediction here.
1376
01:11:48,570 --> 01:11:50,830
This club looks like
the greatest team
1377
01:11:50,830 --> 01:11:53,480
that they've had
in 20 years, and why?
1378
01:11:53,480 --> 01:11:56,140
Simply because
of one man, Bill Baker.
1379
01:11:56,140 --> 01:11:58,660
That boy's an All-American
if I've ever seen one.
1380
01:12:00,140 --> 01:12:01,970
All right, Coach,
how about Junior?
1381
01:12:04,020 --> 01:12:06,230
Okay, Jackson, get in.
1382
01:12:06,230 --> 01:12:07,500
Me?
1383
01:12:12,940 --> 01:12:15,810
Wait a minute,
there's a substitution.
1384
01:12:15,810 --> 01:12:18,730
They're taking Baker out, and
I certainly don't blame them.
1385
01:12:18,730 --> 01:12:22,080
There's no sense in risking
an injury at this time.
1386
01:12:24,560 --> 01:12:28,210
The substitute
for Bill Baker is number...
1387
01:12:28,210 --> 01:12:30,080
66.
1388
01:12:30,080 --> 01:12:31,960
Number 66?
1389
01:12:31,960 --> 01:12:35,870
Let's try K97 on two.
Uh, that's a pleasant play.
1390
01:12:35,870 --> 01:12:38,050
We might enjoy ourselves
with that one.
1391
01:12:38,050 --> 01:12:40,790
Unless you'd rather have,
uh, K97 on four.
1392
01:12:40,790 --> 01:12:43,660
That's more strenuous, but we
might get through with it.
1393
01:12:43,660 --> 01:12:45,140
[ chuckles ]
1394
01:12:45,140 --> 01:12:48,320
No, we better do K97
on two.

On two, break.

They're out of the huddle now.
1397

Oh, oh, fellas,
I have a better idea.
1398
01:12:55,980 --> 01:12:57,850
I'm sorry,
will you come back?
1399
01:13:01,380 --> 01:13:04,600
HARMON:
Oh, they're back
in the huddle again.
1400
01:13:04,600 --> 01:13:06,340
Take it easy, Coach,
take it easy.
1401
01:13:06,340 --> 01:13:08,380
The boy
will come through.
1402
01:13:12,950 --> 01:13:15,390
You'll have to excuse us,
but this is private.
1403
01:13:17,480 --> 01:13:20,180
HARMON:
Heh, Jackson's apparently
having a little trouble
1404
01:13:20,180 --> 01:13:21,700
with his signal.
1405
01:13:26,490 --> 01:13:29,880
My heavens, you're nosy!
Come on.
1406
01:13:31,540 --> 01:13:32,890
Delay of the game!

[ whistle blows ][ crowd exclaims ]
1408
01:13:35,110 --> 01:13:38,500
HARMON:
Ridgeville's penalized five
yards for delaying the game.
1409
01:13:38,500 --> 01:13:40,680
It's now third down,
20 yards to go,
1410
01:13:40,680 --> 01:13:43,980
Ridgeville's ball
on Thornton's 47-yard line.
1411
01:13:43,980 --> 01:13:45,680
Take it easy, Coach.
Take it easy.
1412
01:13:45,680 --> 01:13:48,120
The boy will come through.

PLAYER:
On four, break.
1417
01:14:02,350 --> 01:14:04,700
HARMON:
Ridgeville comes out
of the huddle.
1418
01:14:04,700 --> 01:14:08,270
They go into an unusual spread
formation, no blockers.

ball is snapped,
Jackson has it.
1421
01:14:12,710 --> 01:14:15,360
He's smothered back
at his own 45-yard line.

[ crowd booing ]
1423

He fumbles! There's a big
pile-up down on the field.
1424
01:14:25,160 --> 01:14:28,510
I think-- Yes, they did!
Thornton recovered the fumble!

[ crowd booing and jeering ]
1426
01:14:35,990 --> 01:14:38,170
Ladies and gentlemen,
so far in this game
1427
01:14:38,170 --> 01:14:39,610
young Jackson has not been
1428
01:14:39,610 --> 01:14:41,560
anything like his father,
believe me.
1429
01:14:41,560 --> 01:14:43,780
But then too, Thornton's
had their troubles.
1430
01:14:43,780 --> 01:14:46,660
They're going to have to go
into punt formation and kick.
1431
01:14:46,660 --> 01:14:48,880
It's Philips back
in punt formation.
1432
01:14:48,880 --> 01:14:50,830
There's the snap from center.
1433
01:14:50,830 --> 01:14:53,660
He gets off a long spiral kick
that comes down the field.
1434
01:14:53,660 --> 01:14:56,970
Jackson waits for it
on the 20-yard line.
1435
01:14:56,970 --> 01:14:59,890
Well, he's caught it.
He's off, there he goes.
1436
01:14:59,890 --> 01:15:03,540
The 25, the 30, the 35,
he's at midfield.

[ cheering ]
1438

A Thornton man grabs him
with a necktie tackle,
1439

but Jackson is still
on his feet!
1440
01:15:11,420 --> 01:15:14,380
Wait a minute, Jackson
is running the wrong way!
1441
01:15:14,380 --> 01:15:17,690
He's back at the Thornton 40,
the 30, the 10, the 5--
1442
01:15:17,690 --> 01:15:20,560
He's hit by his own man on the five-yard line and fumbles,
1443
01:15:20,560 --> 01:15:22,430
and Thornton
recovers for a touchdown!
1444

Get in there and take that--
That-that kid's place!
1447
01:15:37,790 --> 01:15:40,320
They're taking Junior
Jackson out of the ball game
1448
01:15:40,320 --> 01:15:42,890
and putting Bill Baker back in.
1449
01:15:42,890 --> 01:15:44,670
Believe me, ladies
and gentlemen,
1450
01:15:44,670 --> 01:15:48,630
Junior Jackson is nothing
like his father.
1451
01:15:48,630 --> 01:15:50,590
He'll win ball games, perhaps,
1452
01:15:50,590 --> 01:15:52,770
but I'm afraid for
the other team.
1453

[ booing continues ]

This has been the worst day
of my life.
1455

How could my own son
do this to me?
1456
01:16:08,610 --> 01:16:12,220
It's not all Junior's fault.Ann...
1457
01:16:12,220 --> 01:16:16,310
you see before you
the mere shell of a man.
1458
01:16:16,310 --> 01:16:20,360
A man who's devoted
his entire life to his child.
1459
01:16:20,360 --> 01:16:23,010
And look what happens.
1460
01:16:23,010 --> 01:16:25,710
He makes a touchdown
for the other team.
1461
01:16:27,670 --> 01:16:31,330
Is there no justice?Oh, don't be so dramatic.
1462
01:16:31,330 --> 01:16:33,410
It's only a football game.
1463
01:16:33,410 --> 01:16:35,850
Only a football game?
1464
01:16:35,850 --> 01:16:38,420
Out there in front of all
of my old classmates,

Jack Jackson disgraces himself?

Is there anything worse?
1468
01:16:46,430 --> 01:16:48,730
Yes, he could've been
a criminal.
1469
01:16:48,730 --> 01:16:51,740
Well, that wouldn't
have been so bad.
1470
01:16:51,740 --> 01:16:55,700
At least we could've sent him
away and no one would know.
1471
01:16:55,700 --> 01:16:59,530
Jack, I'm not going to stand
here and have you berate Junior.

the satisfaction of thinking

Do you still want
to play football?

I'll never get a chance now.

from the squad.

Son, listen to me.
You were at a disadvantage.

It isn't the easiest thing to be
the son of a great athlete.
1490

A prominent father's the biggest
drawback a boy can have.

Don't I know!So from now on,
1492
01:18:01,200 --> 01:18:03,110
your father will not
dominate you.
1493

You'll be left to make your
own decisions. I'll see to that.

01:35:43,740 --> 01:35:45,780
Junior!Hiya, Babs.
1857
01:35:45,780 --> 01:35:47,610
I've been looking all over
for you.
1858
01:35:47,610 --> 01:35:50,830
You know, I can't tell you how
thrilled I was this afternoon.
1859
01:35:50,830 --> 01:35:52,620
You're just
the best football player
1860
01:35:52,620 --> 01:35:54,790
that ever was
in the whole wide world.
1861
01:35:54,790 --> 01:35:56,320
I guess I was just lucky.
1862
01:35:56,320 --> 01:35:59,140
Lucky?
Why, you just thrilled me.
1863
01:35:59,140 --> 01:36:03,020
You know, I've always liked you,
ever since high school.
1864
01:36:03,020 --> 01:36:05,110
Yeah, you did?Of course.
1865
01:36:05,110 --> 01:36:07,410
Couldn't you tell?Well, I--
1866
01:36:07,410 --> 01:36:10,720
Well, you'll be able to tell
from now on, sugar.
1867
01:36:10,720 --> 01:36:14,030
What have you got
for your little Babs?
1868
01:36:14,030 --> 01:36:17,950
Close your eyes,
pucker up your lips...
1869
01:36:17,950 --> 01:36:19,430
Bye.
1870
01:36:31,960 --> 01:36:33,660
Dad, see,
I wore my letter!
1871
01:36:33,660 --> 01:36:35,880
That's nice, son,
but where are your glasses?
1872
01:36:35,880 --> 01:36:38,270
Well, since I won
the game this afternoon
1873
01:36:38,270 --> 01:36:40,530
and I'm a hero,
I don't need them anymore.
1874
01:36:40,530 --> 01:36:42,970
Doc Hunter was right,
it was psychosomatic!
1875
01:36:42,970 --> 01:36:45,360
But Dad, aren't you pleased
about the letter?
1876
01:36:45,360 --> 01:36:46,930
Son, you've taught me
1877
01:36:46,930 --> 01:36:50,500
there are more important things
in life than football.
1878
01:36:50,500 --> 01:36:52,680
Will you please autograph
my program?
1879
01:36:52,680 --> 01:36:55,460
Mine too.Certainly, happy to do it.
1880
01:36:55,460 --> 01:36:57,160
Who's talking to you?
We mean him.
1881
01:36:57,160 --> 01:36:59,380
Yeah, who does that
old geezer think he is?
1882
01:36:59,380 --> 01:37:02,900
That "old geezer" is my dad,
"Jarring" Jack Jackson,
1883
01:37:02,900 --> 01:37:05,820
the greatest football player
ever turned out at Ridgeville.
1884
01:37:05,820 --> 01:37:07,600
So what?
We saw you this afternoon.
1885
01:37:07,600 --> 01:37:09,350
For our money,
you're the greatest.
1886
01:37:09,350 --> 01:37:11,260
I'm going out for football
next season.
1887
01:37:11,260 --> 01:37:14,310
Could you give me
some advice?
1888
01:37:14,310 --> 01:37:17,880
[ imitating Jack ]:
Well, there were three things
when I played football.
1889
01:37:17,880 --> 01:37:21,010
You hit 'em low,
you hit 'em fast,
1890
01:37:21,010 --> 01:37:23,320
and you hit 'em hard.
And if they get up,
1891
01:37:23,320 --> 01:37:25,140
you hit 'em again.
1892
01:37:25,140 --> 01:37:27,840
Yes, sir, you gotta play
guts football.
1893
01:37:27,840 --> 01:37:29,280
BOY 1:
Thanks, Junior.
1894
01:37:29,280 --> 01:37:30,930
BOY 2:
Yeah, thanks a lot, Junior.
1895
01:37:30,930 --> 01:37:32,150
JUNIOR:
Okay.
1896
01:37:35,850 --> 01:37:37,420
[ normally ]:
I'm sorry, Dad.
1897
01:37:37,420 --> 01:37:40,420
That's all right, son.
That's my boy!
1898
01:37:40,420 --> 01:37:42,250
