Review of One Night in Turin (2010) by Kevin C — 31 Jul 2010
Classic nostalgia-fest. Starts off a bit FHM and its sociological credentials are a bit thin. But based on Pete Davies' excellent book this slick film offers some lively context to the improbable rise of Bobby Robsonâ??s loveable rogues â?? including weeping Gazza â?? amid a storm of street violence, media harassment and weak lager.
Itâ??s a familiar tale, but only the hardest of hearts would dismiss its storytelling gusto and clever use of archive footage. A better world with Bobby Robson, and Lynam on the BBC. And yes the penalties still hurt.
