Om denne film

James Van Der Beek (Dawson's Creek) leads the action in this exciting, funny coming-of-age story about a small-town high schooler confronting the pressures and temptations of gridiron glory. At first, backup quarterback Jonathan "Mox" Moxom (Van Der Beek) is nowhere close to being a football star. He's perfectly content to stay on the bench and out of the win-at-all-cost strategies of coach Bud Kilmer (Jon Voight in a powerful performance). But when the starting quarterback is injured, Mox is in the game, and in direct conflict with his hotheaded coach and girlfriend. Soon everyone in Mox's football-crazed community will realize there's not just a new star quarterback in town, there's a new kind of hero.

This movie came out while I was in high school and describes our senior year play by play, the guys, girls, working at your local dairy queen while in school and not having cell phones glued to our hands as teens!! We were living life to its fullest!

Varsity Blues is one of my favorite football dramas of all time. The character development is spectacular and the acting superb. To anyone who has not seen this film and enjoys a good sports drama this is a must see.

this came out while I was in high school, playing football, and living a life similar to this. well except I lived in a big metropolitan city, but I digress. this is a great movie
