Review of One Night in Turin (2010) by Jim F — 06 Jun 2012
I was a little disappointed with this documentary. The build up was detailed and informative. But the actual footage was lacking. There were snippets of footage which were then broken down and replaced by studio staged close ups foot to ball, or ball to post.
No sequence was allowed to be viewed in it's entirety. I expected talking heads, but there was none. Ok, I understand this was a cinematic version of the book "All Played Out" so it did come across as more of a narrative with artistic measure.
Lots of footage of Bobby Robson also which alerted me to the fact that everybody now really says very little for fear of saying the wrong thing. Robson came across as quite out spoken compared to todays managers.
