Draft
Day came out in 2014 and was directed by Ivan Reitman. It starred Kevin Costner who played the
general manager of the Cleveland Browns. This film grossed about $29.5 million
in the box office.
This
movie is about the general manager of the Cleveland Browns (Kevin Costner)
deciding what he should do in the NFL draft. He trades with the Seahawks to get
the first overall pick so they can get the reigning Heisman winner, Bo
Callahan. However Costner isn’t sure that he wants to pick Callahan and looks
into why he shouldn’t take Callahan. When the draft starts Callahan decides to
pick Vontae Mack who he was going to choose at his original draft spot. Later
Costner trades with the Jaguars for the sixth pick. He then trades with the Seahawks
to get his original picks back and a punt returner. Costner then is able to get
Ray Jennings in the next pick.
Most of
this movie is just people on the phone. However they handle the phone scenes
very well. The way they split the screen is kind of interesting. They didn’t just
split the screen in half; they brought the people who were talking into the
foreground. The place they were talking looked more like a background for them.
