Credits dont list him, but most True story based movies have a cameo by


real person if they are still alive

Was Vince Papali

or even the coach in the movie at all?

reply

I thought I read he was in the crowd in one of the games but not I might be thinking of Rudy and not Invincible.

reply

He briefly plays a coach. The DVD extra shows the scene of him standing behind Marky Mark clapping on the sideline.

- or so the Germans would have us believe...

reply

Right, he's clapping in slow motion behind Marky on the field at training camp.

I watched it last week on AMC, which presented the movie with "pop up" facts that made it much more interesting than it should have been.

Papale, his current wife, his 2 kids, and the son of coach Dick Vermeil all appeared in the movie. None had speaking roles.

If I recall correctly, Papale's wife appeared as one of the fans in the "game" they showed at the end against the Giants...I believe she had the most screen time, as she she was sitting just above Elizabeth Banks.
