The Longshots

Long known as Limp Bizkit’s Woodstock-riot starting, smack-talking, Britney Spears-loving front man, Fred Durst’s presence in the film industry is growing with the release of his directorial debut, The Education of Charlie Banks, which follows Charlie Banks (Jesse Eisenberg) from childhood to college where his pristine Ivy League existence is shattered by the arrival of Mick Leary (Jason Ritter), the neighborhood thug he’s lived his life in both fear and awe of.

Once upon a time, there was an eleven year old girl who became the first female quarterback to not only compete in an all-male league but to lead her team to the Super Bowl.

Just a bedtime story? Nope. That’d what Jasmine Plummer did when she became the first female player on a Pop Warner football team. Her story inspired The Longshots, a delightfully heartfelt family film starring Ice Cube and Keke Palmer that opens today.
