Guest Micktoon Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 Just watched the documentary "the two escobars". It's one of ESPN's 30 for 30 series. Brilliant, absolutely brilliant, however tragic. Without a doubt the best football documentary I've ever seen. If you get a chance to see it do so, fucking outstanding. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Micktoon Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 The relation between the drug cartels, Pablo Escobar and the eventual murder of Andre Escobar after the 94 world cup. Bar none the best football documentary I've ever seen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ameritoon Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 Pretty crazy story, definitely should be watched. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 I saw it too when they aired it a few weeks ago. Was with some friends that gave fuck all about football and they were glued to the screen. That's how tragic/powerful that stuff is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorJ_01 Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 Didn't know the two Escobars were unrelated. Interesting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 I had a lump in my throat after watching that. It's obviously more than just a football documentary. It's absolutely stunning tbh. Essential viewing really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 Just watched this on Anytime, it's absolutely brilliant. One of the most powerful documentaries/films I've seen and some of the footage is fabulous (and also tragic). I'd recommend it to anybody Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
