Film review:- MIKE BASSETT

                      ENGLAND MANAGER

Tagline: He Knows F.A. About Football.

Directed by Steve Barron, this is a very funny film.  Even though it has had a bad write up, it is a great look at how bad, we in England, look at our football team.  It is shot in a real documentary form and has the feel of a Channel 4 production.  This is a classic film for UK audiences, but will prove hard to get viewers outside the UK.  You don't have to like football to watch it, in fact it is just as well you don't.  This puts the boot into English football culture, "It's not the winning that counts!"  This is a great feel good film to get your mind off the international news.
