Description

You are invited to a private screening for UT Austin students of the soon-to-be-released movie, "My All American." The movie, written and directed by Angelo Pizzo (writer and producer of Rudy and Hoosiers) is an inspirational football drama focused on the life of Freddie Steinmark, Longhorn defensive back whose football career was cut short by a devastating diagnosis, just days after he played in the 1969 championship game against Arkansas. Finn Wittrock (Unbroken, Noah, American Horror Story) portrays Freddie Steinmark and Aaron Eckhart (The Dark Knight, Thank You for Smoking) plays Coach Darrell K Royal.

Angelo Pizzo will be in attendance, as will Longhorn football player-turned actor, Case McCoy and former Longhorn Michael Huff. Special guest, Chancellor Bill McRaven, will also be in attendance.

A screening pre-show with refreshments, meet-n-greet and photo backdrop will take place from 6-6:45 p.m. in the Santa Rita Room (3.502) at the Texas Union. The screening will begin at 7 p.m., with a short introduction by President Fenves and Angelo Pizzo.

Theatre guests will be provided with colas, Topo Chico and popcorn.
