Great Sporting Movies

[Way Of The Park]

Loads of excellent sporting documentaries around at the moment, but what about fictional sporting movies? Can't think of any decent football dramas (hopefully somebody will come up with one and prove me wrong), but here's my favourite three sports movies;

 

1 . This Sporting Life. Richard Harris in a particularly gritty and accurate depiction of rugby league in the 1960's

2. Rocky. You all know this one, they get progressively worse though after the opening film of the series.

3. Chariots Of Fire. Great opening credits, great soundtrack and a great story.

If its footballing drama you want look no further than Bend It Like Beckham! A pure footballing classic with all the ups and downs you could ever wish for. You can thank me later 😀
