Review of Sugar (2010) by Lesley N — 24 Nov 2009
Excellent sports film that resolutely skips all the expected beats. What, no standing ovation at the end? No sage advice from a gnarled old pro at the three quarters stage? No montage of stunning action shots wowing the crowd at the half way mark? Instead this focusses on the immigrant experience of getting into big money sport, the good and the bad, and suggests, in a hopeful ending so gentle you barely see it coming, that possibly there's shhh.
... more to life than baseball after all. Well worth a watch.
