Description: Portrays a teenage boy who wants to become a forest ranger and is pressured by his father to accept a football scholarship while being tempted by the free - spirited life - style of a friend. Director: The film was directed by Edward Zwick, who made it as a student at the American Film Institute. Cast: It stars Robert Carradine, Michael Conrad, and Wings Hauser. The plot, slightly varying from the AFI catalogue description you provided, centres on a young man deciding not to go to college on a baseball scholarship in order to remain at his summer forest ranger job — though the version you have from the AFI catalogue describes a football scholarship, suggesting there may be minor differences between records. Award: The short film won first place in the student film competition at the 1976 Chicago Film Festival and caught the attention of the producers of the television series Family. Significance: It launched Zwick's career — the producers of Family (ABC, 1976–1980) hired him as a story editor, beginning his mainstream Hollywood trajectory.
