YT: An extraordinary retelling of one of the most famous college football games in history, Kevin Rafferty's HARVARD BEATS YALE 29-29 combines rare footage of the wildly unpredictable 1968 game with unguarded, politically-charged recollections from the original players. The two squads, both of which entered the contest undefeated, included a Vietnam vet as well as members of both paramilitary and antiwar groups; at Harvard, the team also included actor Tommy Lee Jones (who reminisces about his roommate Al Gore), while Yales star quarterback became the inspiration for B.D., the jock character in Garry Trudeaus Doonesbury comic strip. As Jones puts it, ideas were flying around like bullets — and as becomes clear by the end of the film, this was a social experience that resonated well beyond one Saturday afternoon on the playing field.
