@owlstalk 37,620 Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 FINDING JACK CHARLTON is the definitive portrait of an extraordinary man; an English World Cup winning legend, who became an Irish hero.

The documentary features key characters from throughout Jack's career, including major figures in football, music, film, politics, and, for the first time, Jack's family. These personal perspectives, along with previously unseen archive, are an intimate window into Jack's charismatic personality, his managerial philosophy and offer a new level of understanding into FINDING JACK CHARLTON. Powerful & uplifting - Paul Doyle, The Guardian Gripping, heartbreaking, inspirational - Henry Winter, The Times Alzheimer's Society and The Alzheimer's Society of Ireland are proud official charity partners of Finding Jack Charlton. 5% of Producer s Net profit made from each product sold will be donated to Alzheimer's Society & The Alzheimer's Society of Ireland.

The one to avoid is the Nicolas Anelka one. You start off thinking he’s a bit of a tvvat, but by the end of it you realize he’s actually far worse. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

owls maniac 10,377 Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Watched Finding JC earlier. Such an excellent film. The standard of football documentaries seems to be getting better every year. Jack comes across as such a larger than life figure. What a truly awful disease dementia is. The poor bloke had no recollection of how loved he was in Ireland. Link to post Share on other sites
