Chicago – It’s the opening Sunday of the NFL, and what better time to celebrate the films that celebrate the sport that celebrate the ballers. Film history has a steroid-free stack of pro football films in all categories. Patrick McDonald, Jon Lennon Espino and Spike Walters of HollywoodChicago.com take on three prime examples.
Da Boyz! James Caan and Billy Dee Williams Bear Down in ‘Brian’s Song’

The earliest known footage of a football game was a 1903 match-up between powerhouses Princeton and Yale, filmed by Thomas Edison. The earliest narrative films dealt with the college game, from Harold Lloyd’s “The Freshman” (1925) to the Marx Brothers in “Horse Feathers” (1932). An early example of a pro football movie is “The Cowboy Quarterback” (1939), which involves a scout for the “Chicago Packers” (gee, even in olden days screenwriters were lazy as shit).

Tom Cruise isn’t just one of the greatest movie stars in the history of the medium, he might just be the last (depending on how Leonardo DiCaprio wants to play middle age). His face is known all over the world. His name is synonymous with big-screen entertainment. His incredible career has spanned more than 35 years, 45 roles, and hundreds upon hundreds of wild tabloid headlines. He’s been a Vietnam vet, a super-spy, a misogynistic self-help guru, a different super-spy, a samurai, a contract killer, another super-spy, a handsy bartender, a horny Chicago teenager,...

Cast of American Horror Story: Roanoke was on hand at PaleyFest this weekend to talk about the show and answer numerous questions from fans.

Filmmaker tells Austin audience about his difficult childhood and how Donald Trump has improved his writing.
Lee Daniels said he doesn’t understand the #OscarsSoWhite controversy in a keynote speech at SXSW on Sunday in which his Precious and Empire star Gabourey Sidibe made a surprise appearance.
Difficult childhood
Daniels began by recounting the much-publicised story of his difficult youth.
He grew up in the projects in southwest Philadelphia where he witnessed friends getting shot, was raised in a family that dealt drugs to earn a living and by a father who hit him in an attempt to make him “a man”, and realised at a young age he was gay.
“That’s the America I knew [in the 1960s],” Daniels said. “My mom knew something was going to happen to me if I didn’t leave.”

It's hard to believe but the popular film Jerry Maguire has hit the two-decade mark after originally premiering on Dec. 6, 1996 (yes, we're feeling pretty old, too). It's officially been 20 years since Cuba Gooding, Jr. yelled, "Show me the money!" and Renée Zellweger told Tom Cruise, "You had me at hello," through teary eyes—a scene that's caused us to reach for the tissues time and time again. Other mega stars like Regina King and Jerry O'Connell also made their appearances in the '90s flick, and thus, the anniversary has us wondering one thing: Where is the whole cast now?

Well, my theory about the sudden turn of American Horror Story was both correct and incorrect.
