Condena a falta de respeito com que o jogador foi tratado no fim de sua vida, mas comete o mesmo erro ao destruir sua histria em um filme profundamente equivocado.

Rated: 1/5

Good biographical movie. A little bit too "soft-porn" in the first 30 mins of movie. i loved the live footage of the real match in 1962. Good story also.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars
