The film moves the viewer in a wonderful 20 years twentieth century. Tells the story of the emergence of the American National Football Leasgue.
Clooney's father, Nick Clooney, a politician, is noted for saying about himself:[cite this quote]
“ I spent the first part of my life being referred to as Rosemary Clooney’s brother, and now I am spending the last part of my life being referred to as George Clooney’s dad.
"Run for office? No. I've slept with too many women, I've done too many drugs and I've been to too many parties."
- George Clooney
George Clooney earned a living through the '80s with bit parts on The Facts of Life and Roseanne, but at 33, he raised heart rates and his celebrity status as Dr. Doug Ross on the NBC juggernaut ER.
Clooney became a household name and bonafide sex symbol (twice dubbed by PEOPLE the Sexiest Man Alive). When he made the jump to the big screen, Clooney alternated between big-budget studio films (the Ocean's Eleven franchise) and smaller, more politically minded fare. He earned Oscar nods for directing and cowriting Good Night, and Good Luck, and that same year, Clooney became an Oscar winner for his supporting role in Syriana.
