Greg Le Duc, writer and producer of GRIDIRON was born and raised in Green Bay. He went to Packer games as a teenager during the Lombardi era.
"What motivated me to write the script was that although everyone knew that Curly started the Packers, nobody really had any in-depth knowledge about the beginnings of the team. I was intrigued about the origins of this great football dynasty and a guy named Curly that grew up in my town that nobody seemed to know.

"My parents Claude and Rose helped me with my research and even assisted me in meeting with Marguerite Lambeau. She was 99 years old when I interviewed her. Talking with Marguerite was inspiring. I knew this was more than just a football tale it was a real love story. I believe that this will be a great movie."
- Greg Le Duc


CURLY & MARGUERITE
"GRIDIRON" is more than just a great sports story about the beginning of pro football told from the point of view of the underdog team. It's a love story about an athlete and his high school sweetheart, and at the same time, the love affair between a small town and its football team. The Green Bay Packers are the only team in all professional sports that are owned by the citizens of the town. Their extreme passion for their football team and the sport is unmatched.

This screenplay tells the story of Curly Lambeau, the player and coach of the Packers, Marguerite Lambeau, his wife, Donny, his son,
GEORGE
HALAS
Marcel, his father, George Whitney Calhoun, the cantankerous newspaper sports writer and co-founder of the team, George Halas the player, coach and owner of the Chicago Bears and Lambeau's nemesis, Joe Carr, the head of the National Football league, Tim Mara, retired bookie and owner of the New York Giants and Johnny "Blood" McNally, one of the most brilliant and wild halfbacks ever to play pro ball.

In the 1920s, pro football was struggling to survive.
JOHNNY
"BLOOD"
It was a time of crude leather helmets and bloody, bruising roughnecks. George Whitney Calhoun passed the hat for donations during the games. Former college football players and blue collar working men played for the love of the game, not to make a buck. This is no overnight success story. Curly and his men struggled for years to achieve a championship team. After a decade of missing the brass ring, the people of his hometown started to doubt his ability to produce a winner.

The odds were against the little town in northeastern Wisconsin. For Curly and his supporters, fielding a team that could beat or even provide a fair match for Chicago, Boston or New York was an almost impossible dream. Curly's stubborn determination took a toll on his marriage to Marguerite and his relationship with his son. All Curly and his boys have to show for their efforts are scars, broken bones and disappointment.

In the end it is Curly's incredible enthusiasm and grit, along with his team of veteran players combined with the intense loyalty of the Green Bay fans that enables them to come out on top.

About Reading Screenplays
Movie scripts are the blueprints for making motion pictures. They inspire producers and studios to commit time and money, and allow actors to get to know their physical and emotional roles in the story and for directors to gain an insight into the characters and the action that will be on the screen.

Still, reading screenplays is somewhat abstract. The reader must use their imagination far more than when reading in a novel, since what you are provided with is the character's dialog, brief descriptions of the character's outward appearance and the story in the form of shots and scenes.

The great thing about reading a movie script is that it allows you to create the movie in your head. There are a few terms to learn such as EXT. means EXTERIOR or outdoors and INT. means INTERIOR or indoors. Most of the terminology of a script is easy to translate. Think of reading a script as a new adventure.
