United - 2011 - 6/10
Docudrama of Man U’s 1958 Busby’s Babies.
The young team dominates England’s pitch, journeys to Beograd for European matches.
Not really a football flick, as I had thought.
Conflict with league officials, technical issues on the aircraft, survivors bookmark the story.
This story is less well known outside England, and perhaps fading into memory now.
Characters, even those with major lines, are barely more than shades.
Actual turf action - none.
The visual image is too soft, and the color overly desaturated.
