The Junction Boys
The Junction Boys ★★ 2002
A look at one phase in the career of legendary tough-guy college football coach Paul “Bear” Bryant (well-played by Berenger). Film starts in 1954 with Bryant's arrival at Texas A&M as he drives his players, eventually known as the Junction Boys, to make the team. (Drama sticks to football practice not competition.) The focus is on three key players (who, of course, have personal problems to overcome)—Skeet Keeler (Humphrys), Claude Gearheart (Kwanten), and Johnny Haynes (Curry). 93m/C VHS, DVD . Tom Berenger, Bernard Curry, Fletcher Humphrys, Ryan Kwanten, Nick (Nicholas) Tate, Mark Lee, Andy Anderson; D: Mike Robe; W: Mike Robe; C: Stephen F. Andrich; M: Steve Dorff. CABLE
