His funeral was broadcastlive to Europe, South America and Asia.And, as one newspaper wrote, "the boysof the country were numbed. Their herohad been taken from them."With one eye on the scoreboard and theother focused clearly on the historicalrecord, Knute Rockne and his FightingIrish explores the entanglement of fact andmyth that was Knute Rockne. A Lutheranby birth who became the symbol ofCatholic pride in the 1920's; a self-createdsuper salesman who was one of the firstmedia stars; a garrulous and funny p.r.man who obligingly recreated hislegendary pep talks for the newsreelcameras, Knute Rockne was responsiblefor transforming the game of football froman obscure and innocent pastime into thecolorful amalgam of passion, spectacle,and big business we know today. Alongthe way he turned the University of NotreDame into the most famous Catholicschool in the country, leading toconfrontations with the Ku Klux Klan in1924 and, in our own time, to multi-milliondollar contracts, for football gamebroadcasts.Knute Rockne and his Fighting Irishevokes a post-World War I world in whichoptimism was rampant, a time whenconsumer culture was born and the mediaachieved a position of prominence.Offering illuminating insights on both thegenesis of the forward pass and the natureof ethnic pride, it chronicles the rise of thesports industry in America, and the life andlegend of the man who brought footballinto the modern world.Item no. : WC08880098Format : DVD (Color)Duration : 52 minutesAudience : Grade 7 or aboveCopyright : <strong>2009</strong>StdBkNo : 9781559748063Price : USD 133.00BIOGRAPHYAMERICAN EXPERIENCE:THE TRIALS OF J.
