From the time he's a young boy, Rudy (Sean Astin) is determined to join the Fighting Irish. But his blue-collar family only laughs at his ambitions - they know Rudy will follow his father and brother to the local steel mill. And, for four long years after high school, he does just that. But some dreams won't die, as Rudy proves when he goes to heroic, occasionally hilarious, lengths to win admission to Notre Dame. Once there, he becomes a walk-on player, serving as little more than a human tackling dummy against the startling players. Bloodied but unbeaten, Rudy wins the respect of legendary coach Ara Parseghian and the other Irish players, who give him one shot at gridiron glory. An incredible, true story from the creators of Hoosiers, Rudy is an unforgettable testament to the power of dreams and the triumph of the common man."

Movies similar to Radio - Rudy   Radar Men From the Moon DVD. Radio - Rudy DVD DVD A Republic Serial in 12 Chapters. Time was winding down for the great twenty year run of the classic Republic Serial when, in the 1950's world of Cold Wars and Red Scares, Republic touched the heights of its glory days one final time for Radar Men from the Moon, in its way a sequel to the memorable 1945 gem The Purple Monster Strikes but combined with the major plotlines of King of the Rocketman which provided the main supporting elements. Rocketman Jeff King had morphed into the new character Republic hoped might gain traction in the emerging world of television, Commando Cody (in fact, a dozen half-hour episodes were eventually shot for the small screen starring Judd Holdren), but, for true serial aficionados, the highlight was the return of the best of all serial villains, the masterful Roy Barcroft, who was shoehorned into this old "Purple Monster" suit - which had fit perfectly just six years before, but now burst at the seems with the actor's added girth. Even draped in an Emperor's gown to disguise his weight, the old menace was still there, this time in Barcroft's portrayal of Retik, Emperor of the Moon, intent on conquering and colonizing the planet Earth so that his people might escape the failing atmosphere of their homeland, which can no longer sustain life. Outfitted in the familiar old Rocketsuit, the truly-wooden George Wallace essays the Commando Cody role, but-thankfully-genius stuntman Davey Sharpe was still around to almost make it fly. A series of unexplained disasters have stricken planet Earth, with dams breaking, electrical power stations exploding, and a few cities disintegrating along the way just for a little variety. That forever unnamed "secret government agency" which always seemed to show up these chapterplays just to provide a little direction asks Commando Cody and his crew to "look into it". Their resulting twelve chapter investigation not only includes a rocket to the Moon, but flushes out future Lone Ranger Clayton Moore as the main bad guy. He and all of his associates - Retik included - are ultimately disposed of by the end of chapter twelve of Radar Men from the Moon.   Radar Men From the Moon DVD. Radio - Rudy DVD Movie Radar Men From The Moon (1951), one of the last of the Republic serials, follows Commando Cody, Sky Marshall of the Universe (George Wallace) as he attempts to foil the evil Retik's plans for invading the Earth. Thanks in part to stock footage from previous Republic serials, such as the excellent flying suit scenes from King Of The Rocket Men (1949), Radar Men manages to pack plenty of action into its 12 chapters. Production began in October, 1951, with shooting at (and around) the Republic lot. For scenes on the Moon, Retik's home base, the cast, crew and director Fred C. Brannon journeyed north to Red Rock Canyon. Supporting George Wallace in that cast were Roy Barcroft as Retik and Clayton Moore as Graber, a hood on Retik's sinister payroll. Radar Men From The Moon was especially tough on Wallace. He ran around the desert in a leather jacket and bullet-shaped helmet, using a trampoline to simulate Cody's rocket-power takeoffs. And though some of his stunts were handled by Tom Steele, he still managed to have his nose broken by Clayton Moore. All in a day's work at Republic Pictures.   Radar Men From the Moon DVD.
