Any Given Sunday
Four years ago, Tony D'Amato's (Al Pacino) Miami
Sharks had nailed two championships in a row. Now his team is struggling
with three consecutive losses, sliding attendance, and aging heroes. Off
the field, D'Amato has a failed marriage and estranged children, and
he's on a collision course with Christina Pagniacci (Cameron Diaz), the
young president/co-owner of the Sharks. When a devastating hit knocks
star veteran Cap Rooney and the second-string quarterback out of the
game, the Sharks' third-stringer, Willie Beamen (Jamie Foxx), is called
out, and he stuns everyone with his performance. Soon, "Steamin'
Beamen" is playing for all of the material perks that he can
acquire during the short life span of a pro football player. With Beamen
pushing from one side, and Christina Pagniacci pressuring from the
other, Tony D'Amato sees the Sharks coming apart at the seams.
