First time I watched this I took it as little more than a made for TV movie. Second time a decade later I really appreciate the story it has to tell and how it captures the Manchester of my childhood. I'm not old enough to remember the Munich air disaster but United winning the European Cup is one of the first matches I remember. Thanks mostly to the outstanding performance of Georgie Best. Now I'm old enough to fully appreciate the impact the crash had on the Nation not just Manchester. The script is very powerful and enlightens us as to the contrast between the earnings of players of today and players of recent history. I think the casting was brilliant - Tennant especially gave a credible and 10/10 performance as Jimmy Murphy. I highly recommend this film. As a Mancunian I am very proud of how the club rose like a phoenix - but more so incredibly sad for the tragedy told so sensitively by this film.
