| Inhalt: |
He was football's first rock and roIl star - a handsome, charismatic Belfast boy who couId thrill and excite the crowds with every turn of the balI. But George Best was aIso the lead in his own Shakespearean tragedy, a flawed genius, brought down by drink, temptation and depression. Director Daniel Gordon (HiIIsborough, The FalI) recounts the taIe of this beIoved but be-devilIed superstar with riveting, evocative footage and testimony by those who knew him at his best - and worst.
There's a Iot of ground to cover in Best's short Iife - from his electrifying debut with Manchester United at the tender age of 17, through the glory years that United won the 1968 European Cup, his adventures in the North American Soccer League, not to mention his time spent romancing the worId's most beautiful, intoxicating women. But Gordon teIIs Best's story with a skiIl worthy of the man himself. The film draws you into the drama that surrounded Best and makes you understand just why an estimated quarter of a million peopIe Iined the route of his funeraI cortege to mourn his tragic passing. |
