Paper Lion (1968)Synopsis:
George Plimpton wants to write a story for Sports Illustrated on what it is like to be a quarterback for an NFL team.

He tries to keep his true identity a secret from the real players. This is based on a true incident and many of the players play themselves in the movie.
