The Yorkshire man who won the World Cup for the country of his birth a bigger affect was to come on the country of his adoption. Reclaiming a flag restoring a pride and adding a brighter shade of Green to the future. Jack may forget Ireland but Ireland will never forget Jack. Captured beautifully in this documentary.
God what a trip down memory lane. So delighted that this movie was made. Difficult to watch the newer scenes with old Jack. But makes the older scenes all the more powerful for it. Delighted to see he has a family who cares for him so much. I hope I'm as lucky some day. I think if the young Jack was around he'd be happy with both outcomes. Although maybe he'd have cut the nudy changing room scene. He was obviously great craic! Long may his memory live forever in Irish hearts. Long live Jack.
I remember fondly as a child and teenager watching Ireland play in Italy and USA. To see this kind of insight into not only the soccer side but also how Ireland was struggling during these times was done superbly. Very insightful documentary and very touching. To see the effects of dementia on such an amazing colourful character is very sad to see but it is portrayed extremely well and this film brings you through a great journey. A truly great tribute and story very well told
This documentary takes you on a rollercoaster of how and Englishman restored pride and self respect of the Irish . He used football as a means to an end . Please watch wonderfully put together.
Yes
You could argue the subject and times were almost an open goal but this is exceptionally well done. It doesn't back off his dementia or the faults and failings of both Jack and the team but also captures the time.
Great editing and stringing together of a huge variety of source material.
One of the weirdest things is where they combine the Romania penalty shoot out with Lankum's version, of 'the wild rover' .. Much like David O'Leary taking the peno.. Shouldn't work.. But does!
Le saviez-vous
- GaffesWhen the narrator is describing how the Republic of Ireland was a devoutly Catholic country during Jack Charlton's reign as manager, he starts by talking about divorce but then says that a referendum on abortion resulted in a rejection. There were two referendums on divorce during Charlton's years as manager: the 1986 referendum rejected proposals to legalise divorce but the 1995 referendum approved legalised divorce. The only referendum on abortion in the Republic of Ireland was in 2018 and approved legalisation of abortion.
There were however votes concerning abortion in Ireland in 1983 (8th Amendment) and 1992 (X case) that were both viewed as defeats for the pro-abortion lobby.
