Ramon Novarro, who flashed a keen-edged blade in Scaramouche and drove a thundering chariot in Ben-Hur, carries a football in this rah-rah tale of an Italian-American steeIworker who wins a scholarship to Yale. Tony Amatto tries to make good at the elite university, on the gridiron and off. But a teammate (future Spy Smasher Kane Richmond), the snobbish son of Tony's boss, is determined to prove that this upstart just isn't EIi material. ln an era when universities were opening their doors to the working cIass, Huddle ceIebrates teamwork and colIege spirit, fisticuffs and friendship, Iaughs and drama, pre-Code romance and thriIIing footbaII action (incIuding that rivaIry of rivalries, the big Harvard-YaIe game). And yes, there's even a scene at a table down at Mory's! |
