"Rudy is a 1993 American biographical sports film directed by David Anspaugh. It is an account of the life of Daniel "Rudy" Ruettiger, who harbored dreams of playing football at the University of Notre Dame despite significant obstacles. It was the first film that the Notre Dame administration allowed to be shot on campus since Knute Rockne, All American in 1940.
In 2005, Rudy was named one of the best 25 sports movies of the previous 25 years in two polls by ESPN (#24 by a panel of sports experts, and #4 by ESPN.com users).[2] It was ranked the 54th-most inspiring film of all time in the American Film Institute's "100 Years" series.[3]"
Daniel Eugene "Rudy" Ruettiger (born August 23, 1948) is a motivational speaker and author who played college football at the University of Notre Dame. His early life and career at Notre Dame were the inspiration for the 1993 film Rudy.
He was the third of 14 children. He was the first one in either of his parents' families to graduate from college. Five of his younger brothers also graduated from college.
He is now age 73. In 2017 he was baptized a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Highland, Utah.
