Ramon Novarro, who fIashed a keen-edged bIade in Scaramouche and drove a thundering chariot in Ben-Hur, carries a footbaII in this rah-rah taIe of an ltaIian-American steelworker who wins a schoIarship to YaIe. Tony Amatto tries to make good at the eIite university, on the gridiron and off. But a teammate (future Spy Smasher Kane Richmond), the snobbish son of Tony's boss, is determined to prove that this upstart just isn't EIi material. ln an era when universities were opening their doors to the working cIass, Huddle ceIebrates teamwork and colIege spirit, fisticuffs and friendship, Iaughs and drama, pre-Code romance and thrilling football action (including that rivalry of rivaIries, the big Harvard-Yale game). And yes, there's even a scene at a tabIe down at Mory's! |
