“Preposterously entertaining…Pulses with the artful, exciting beats of a thriller”—Manohla Dargis, The New York Times. Late in the eventful year of 1968, Ivy League football teams Harvard and Yale, both undefeated that season, met in Cambridge for one of the most famous games in history. This extraordinary retelling uses rare footage of the wildly unpredictable match and is told exclusively by the original players, including Harvard’s offensive lineman, Tommy Lee Jones. More than just football, the Harvard vs. Yale game, in retrospect, was a major cultural and political event that somehow involved the Vietnam War, the beginnings of the comic strip Doonesbury, both presidential candidates from the 2000 election, and even Meryl Streep!
