Oscar, here we come

Rating: Null/10 (7 October 2000)

Fabulous movie, superbly written and superbly acted! It's such a pleasure to see a movie which, while dealing with a mature theme, is able to do so without gratuitous violence or scatologic language. This is not a "football movie". Football here is only a metaphor for far more basic societal problems. I see numerous Oscar nominations ahead.
