Review

Documentarian Kevin Rafferty (The Atomic Café) delves into the memory books to replay the dramatic 1968 football game between the two Ivy powerhouses, which also put into sharper relief the political divisions within the American ruling class during that turbulent period. That said, this touching, exciting film works less as a cultural portrait and more as a look at the bittersweet nature of time and memory.
