When people say dreams don’t come true, tell them about Rudy
Ever since he was a little boy, Rudy Ruettiger has dreamed of attending Notre Dame University and playing on the Fighting Irish football team. But Rudy’s dream doesn’t seem very practical as his grades are not especially impressive, and standing a shade over five feet tall and weighing a little over 100 pounds, Rudy is hardly built for the gridiron.

MPAA: Rated PG for mild language.
Principal Cast: Sean Astin, Jon Favreau, and Ned Beatty
Director: David Anspaugh

It's all about determination. Determination is what keeps you going when you want to quit. Never let a set back cause you to quit. You never know what's on the horizon. Learn to look at every situation with a different pair of lens.

This is a truly great movie clip. Live, live, live without regret!
