Dave Stoller

Funny how Dennis Christopher was nominated for the Most Promising Newcomer in the Golden Globes, though his co-stars (Dennis Quaid, Daniel Stern and Jackie Earle Haley) would all go on to have far more successful careers in Hollywood. Despite that fact, “Breaking Away” was the coming of age story of Dave Stoller (Christopher) and his attempt to find a better life for himself via cycling, and by proxy European culture. It is the often told story of the common vs. the elite, and an inspirational one at that with Stoller winning a cycling competition on behalf of the “Cutters” (the term used to slam those who worked the quarry, and thus the ‘common man’) and rode his team to victory. It is a simple story, but these are often the ones that work best, and it was considered one of the better sports films ever. Christopher may not have come close to a role like this again, but is he alone in that? Not at all!

The 2018 Fictitious Athlete Inductees
First off, let’s get something out of the way. For our purposes; the Karate Kid Remake starring Will Smith’s snotty kid never happened. With that out of the way, one of the great underdogs in sports cinema history has to be Daniel LaRusso. In the first film, LaRusso got the crap beaten out of him constantly by a group of karate fighting California teens with a merciless trainer. With the most unlikely help (the iconic Mr. Miyagi), LaRusso managed to learn the art of self defence…while learning how to paint a house.
He had the chance to face his bullies in a fair fight, the 1984 All Valley Karate Tournament, and we were treated with the best opening round wins in the perfect 80’s montage. (Come on, you were humming “You’re the Best”, right now, weren’t you?) Of course he won, even after his opponents used unscrupulous tactics (Sweep the leg!), and gave us an athletic heartwarming story.
On the flipside, let’s forget Part III, where he defended his All-Valley championship (at the age of 40 it looked like, and again he was getting the snot pounded out of him prior to) and won by doing a dance (kata) and a basic palm thrust to the chest; which won him the match but inflicted no damage to his opponent. Really lame, Daniel-San!

The lone Lacrosse entry on the ballot, Chris Ostreicher (Oz) was the star of the East Great Falls High School team, which meant…..well, not a whole lot. The only time we saw him on the field was when he abandoned his team to sing glee with the chick from American Beauty. What kind of teammate is that?

Granted, this Canadian film was ONLY successful in Canada, but considering it was a film about Curling in Canada, that was completely to be expected. Still, this was a cute film about redemption, small towns, and a cute little sport that has a devoted audience. Paul Gross (a Canadian icon is own right) starred as the skip of his small town squad, and though again this film only has relevance in Canada, it was perfect for what it was. Now, does a curling film hold merit for the Hall? We are not sure either.
