  • Gedreht in: New Orleans

Number One is a 1969 American sports drama film released by United Artists and directed by Tom Gries.

Production

Plans for the film were announced in 1966 to be made by the same team as The War Lover.

The National Football League permitted the New Orleans Saints' name and jerseys to be used as opposed to many football films featuring professional teams with fictional names. However, this led to historical inaccuracies in the film, particularly in flashbacks of Catlan's career.

The music was composed by Dominic Frontiere, future husband of Los Angeles Rams owner Georgia Frontiere.

Number One was released on VHS in the early 1980s, but was quickly deleted; MGM released the film on DVD on November 12, 2015.
