Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Grid-iron musical caper in which Texas college no-hopers take on Yale's finest. Major train-spotting points if you already knew that 15-year-old Judy Garland made her big screen entrance here, billed ninth and singing 'It's Love I'm After', but that the Oscar-nominated Erwin stole the show as a hick melon-thrower who comes in handy when the Texas quarterback gets injured.Author: TJ
