Remember just being proud as punch that this 'big' film was entirely centred around Newcastle. Feel like it wasn't a bad movie either. By-the-numbers stuff but still decent. Also Anna Friel. It was decent as football movies go, so I enjoyed it given all the Newcastle stuff. Remember there was something a bit depressing about it all being the season Bobby got sacked. We were shit when it came out, and it obviously been planned when we were a top 4 club. My girlfriend - Mexican-American, from LA - isn't that into football but she knew the film and says the lads in her school (Mexican, so most into football) were obsessed with the film when it came out. It also got mentioned to me a few times when I was in Chile and said I was from Newcastle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still baffling they didn’t get someone with a hint of footballing ability to play the main part, not an actual footballer but an actor who actually knows how to properly kick a football. The film’s football footage was the thing that really let it down Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind the original Santiago (the one who was presented to the crowd when the film was first announced) and was replaced due to a scheduling conflict (I think) hasn’t done too bad for himself in his acting career- Diego Luna Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean aye he's one of Mexico's two biggest actorsMy gf will be buzzing when I tell her I've seen him in flesh. For those who don't know he's one of the main guys in Star Wars Rogue One and getting his own series soon, and in Y Tu Mama Tambien amongst numerous others. Incidentally Luna has a British mother who died when he was young. Edited June 10, 2021 by Inferior Acuña Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the actors ran onto the pitch on the final whistle a couple of times and joined in with the players a couple of times. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 Think some of the scenes where they were filming the actors playing they had extras filming 1 or 2 blocks behind them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
