What's that movie
Watched a film on the way to Singapore last month but can't remember the name.
Was subtitled and was about a small town fishing community that had progressed in the cup.
An ex superstar player that had fallen on hard times and alcoholism was sentenced to coach this club
in the cup(sounds familiar storyline). he get's together ex players and makes it all the way to play Juve(I think)
to save the fishing towns produce plant...I won't give away the ending.
Was a fun movie with a few laughs and wouldn't mind watching it again as I had a few reds on that flight...

Why not?
When Saloth Sar gets banned for the reason you request Adolf Hitler to be banned I shall stop posting as Adolf Hitler.

Or more specifically, why not on a plane as opposed to anywhere else?

Re: What's that movie
I prefer films I don't have to concentrate on on a plane, I normally doze on flights and regularly will just close my eyes and listen as I drift off rather than actually WATCH. Plus you will invariably get distrubed by someone wanting to get out, serve you food or I want to get another beer.Ofor Fuxake wrote:Or more specifically, why not on a plane as opposed to anywhere else?

Re: What's that movie
I'm the reverse. I've never really been a big fan of flying and can never sleep on a flight so prefer to concentrate on something to take my mind off the fact that I am flying. Having said that, relying on subtitles when you're trying to eat is a pain. These days I take my tablet and stop/start films as I please.

Re: What's that movie
Depending on the airline they may have their inflight movies listed on their website.

he makes a good point!
Only issue, they normally update them at the start of the month. So could be different films this month.
Re: What's that movie

Buggered if I can think of the name, not even the fishing village it was set in.

I looked at their site before posting but being the turn of the month couldn't find anything either.Steve#4 wrote:Yep, tried to look and only have new releases...Was Singapore airlines on the krisworld system.
If this username offends you does Saloth Sar. At least that is the name of someone that exists.
Re: What's that movie
I have searched the net and can't find the film, maybe I had more red wines than I thought and dreamt it rather than watched it

Re: What's that movie
I believe it was called The World Cup "A Captains Tale" The true story of the First world footballing competition, won by a bunch of miners from Durham. Won it three times and beat the likes of Juventus to retain the cup in perpetuity. Starred Dennis Waterman and Richard Griffith etc made in 1982 as a Telemovie.
Hope this helps

Re: What's that movie
Too many things in the original descriptions don't work. That film does exist though and is based on the true story of West Auckland.brushmancity wrote:I believe it was called The World Cup "A Captains Tale" The true story of the First world footballing competition, won by a bunch of miners from Durham.

There are a number of Chinese and Japanese in the film.
They are martial art experts.
An old guy recruited them for a football tournament.
They played in a street match.
They were beaten like hell in the match (like a war zone)
The team which played against them was all juiced up (steroids)
Finally, they won with the spiritual power.
