Watch Those Glory Glory Days For Free

Simply A Masterpiece

It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Poor old 'Zorplo' simply doesn't get it. This is a genuinely entertaining film, brilliantly scripted, staged and acted, and it captures perfectly not just the mood of the times but also the madness of teenage obsession. As a 60-something male and admitted Spurs supporter, I loved the film the first time I saw it many years ago and I've seen it several times since, never enjoying it any less. It's a wonderful example of British film making at its best, so much better than the modern crash-bang-wallop offerings which seem to believe that loads of nudity and foul language make up for an absence of any real story, acting, humour or irony. Anyone with a Bruce Willis fixation probably won't like it; anyone who likes genuinely good films certainly will.

Film 4 made a number of simple but beautifully observed pictures in the years immediately after the launch of the channel, but which no-one makes any more. This is an excellent example, a perfect companion to the more famous P'Tang Yang Kipperbang.Quite why this is so overlooked is difficult to understand - could it be that (with some bitter irony) a film that has a sub-theme of discrimination against women in football is itself ignored because its a film based around a group of girl football fans? Or could it be that people are put off because its a "football film", or about one club?Whatever the reason is, its a shame as this is a little gem. A perfect evocation of what it is to be young, as well as being a sports fan. Iit captures the feel of early 60s perfectly, before the decade began to swing. But above all its about friendship. What it isn't about is football (or even, come to that, girls) - that is almost incidental, a core to build the story around.Above all this is a warm, happy, gentle, perfectly paced film that would appeal to just about anyone of any age. Even Arsenal fans!

I have seen this movie many times and it never fails to impress with its accurate reflection of the times. The actors are all spot-on, especially the younger ones. I was a young girl during this period and can guarantee that this was how it was for us. I watch it these days with a sigh, remembering that in those days, life was so straightforward for us. Danny Blanchflower, Bill Brown, Peter Baker, Ron Henry, Maurice Norman, Dave McKay, Cliff Jones, Bobby Smith, the late John White (tragically struck by lightening whilst playing golf) Terry Dyson and Les Allen - these were legendary names when being a footballer meant a devotion to the sport rather than to one's income. Plus, it's always wonderful to revisit Spurs when they were Giants! (Once a Spur - always a Spur!) This movie for me is a companion piece with Jack Rosenthal's "Ptang Yang Kipperbang" which was also based on young teens of that era. (and was also superb)

What can I say. A film about supporting 'by far the greatest team the world has ever seen', and one of the finest players ever to pull on a lillywhite shirt.Aside from my bias, it's a little British movie that only GB can make. Touching and funny, it perfectly captures the joy and pain of being a teenager.Bring back Monday lunchtime FA Cup draws.
