these conversations are almost entirely invented like I would have liked to have seen players interacting talking about what was going on you know get two of the more famous prominent players Duff and Robbie Keane Quinn and whoever being like talking themselves about it as well oh yeah like have you seen the two popes anyone seen you know yeah yeah they completely invent those conversations between Pope Francis and Pope Benedict but they're very they invented good ones that you'd like I wonder if they did talk about this what it would be like they could have done that here more I felt like put as you say the questions we would always talk to you what were the
players saying well this was unfolding my info is they didn't reach out much to the players if at all I can't I can't say every single player but it wouldn't have to I mean if you're in you can invent a plausible as you said a plausible conversation someone going to Roy Keane being like jeez Roy like we're a week away like that would have been good cinema to see yeah the wrangling of Roy yeah like those Pope conversations never happened but they were interesting to watch a hypothetical because people would wonder what they would have been like so I just think again maybe owing to the run time and what they chose to do with it I think there was scope to flesh out those guys make them
like shooting a banana boat scene would actually be kind of expensive I think that would be more expensive than two guys talking at a table we blew our whole budget on that banana boat make it 91 minutes yeah do we think Roy King goes to see this movie no no he doesn't took on a baseball hat Roddy Doyle asked him when I was in Cork at that event and he showed no interest little interest in even answering the question let alone I would have thought going to see it but was this before or after he named the best laugh back he played with it it was before
and like the show The Missed Opportunity like Roddy didn't even ask him what do you make of a movie being made about you he was like oh will you go to see it no okay let's back I feel like there could have been a good 15 minutes and Roy they're making a movie about you what do you think what do you think Roy Keane would think of the portrayal I think his kids will 100% watch it and then so much so and quiz him about it that he'll just watch it himself at some point
there was like there was music coming so again like an example when Roy Keane finally goes home and it's like it's kind of tense and it cuts to him on the flight so he's just done the interview in the airport it cuts him on the flight and the guy's kind of that's really good the music is blaring though another shout out though for Raina Hardwick his white t-shirt interview in Saipan airport is so good
But then they just start blaring music.
He's on the flight and he's looking straight ahead and the music is blaring at a decibel up to 100.
Why couldn't that just be him in silence on the plane and the guy looking at him and then he looking at the guy?
I think they shied away from it.
I think they thought this could be boring if we make this too moody or something.
Yeah, maybe that was it, because I just thought some of the music was excessively loud as well.
Yeah.
The archival footage, it starts really well with that montage of United, his United years.
The Oasis song, it's perfect.
All his big tempo moments from his United career, getting injured in Haaland over him, then him getting back in Haaland.
All of it is summed up very briskly and very, very skillfully.
Yeah.
It was artfully done.
It's like an Avengers post-credits scene.
Like, you know, it's a must.
