I love good football films (i.e. football as subject). By this I don’t mean Hollywood’s image of football like Green Street Hooligans (about a hooligan educated at Harvard. Serious) or the older Escape to Victory or Soccer Dog (yes, serious). Which reminds me of this hilarious blog post about American sports and television culture’s impact on the game.
But let’s stay in a positive mood.
Here’s a rundown of a couple of new (and recently released) films about the beautiful game that I am trying to see.
First up is “The Damned Utd.”
