I put it together before when someone was thinking out loud about football films. I searched through IMDB (the internet movie database) on different keywords, and put together the list. There were a lot more listed, but I figured they were European football, or only had a character related to football without any football content (i.e. Girl dates the quarterback).
I know there is a wonderful book from Leonard Maltin (sp?) that lists movies, and clasifies them - it had subsections just like this and I wouldn't be surprised if it had a sections for Sports-Football, but I don't have it anymore :-(
There are also more documentaries out there, and videos of particluar games, but I tried to keep them to a minimum on the list (except for the REALLY early ones, 10 minutes of Arm-Navy 1911 must be really cool to watch, maybe even some penalty enforcement!)
Some on the list might be wrong, and I'm sure there are some missing.
By the way the German one (Vorspiel mit Nachspiel) is to my knowledge not released, but I'm in it (11 hours of filming for a QB sack, a sweep for 0 yardage, and a pass TD pass from the 30).
I read that someone here is in Firday Night Lights, but I have no idea who.

Sweet stuff! I buddy of mine is in The Playmakers. And in a different, less entertaining sport (basketball) a colleague of mine is the official in Finding Forrester.
I'm glad Blockbuster has no late fees. Looks like I'll be renting some movies.
