Observations from Toby’s PI:
“This couple was really something. First off, neither of them is really injured, although, at this rate they’ll get there eventually. They showed up at the pub, started getting wasted. Regular drunks, up to a point. Then the dudebro started arguing with the wifey and she was not having it. She gave it as good as she got. He complained about her sleeping around on him and she blamed him for their financial issues. At some point things got physical, the woman threw the first punch, he hit back. They got in a real fight, but the barmen told them to cut it out or he will ban them from the pub. It must’ve been a good threat, since this is one of the few affordable drinkeries around, so they calmed down. Believe it or not, they were slow-dancing half an hour after the fight. I think my job here is done.”
From The B-Movie Badlands...
Escape To Victory (1981)
Not really a b-movie, (I mean, it was directed by John Huston), this movie has a cult status amongst football fans especially as it features legends from the game like Bobby Moore, Pele, Osvaldo Ardiles, Kazimierz Deyna, Paul Van Himst, Mike Summerbee, Hallvar Thoresen, Werner Roth and...Ipswich Town. Sly Stallone, Michael Caine and Max Von Sydow top the bill. The plot sees our plucky heroes playing against the best players the Nazis could muster and carry out out a daring escape right under the Fuhrer's nose at the same time. Stallone was still basking in the glow of Rocky and this film follows in much the same 'downtrodden heroes win big' formula. Legend has it that Stallone - as the goalkeeper - wanted to rush forward and score the winning goal. Thankfully director John Huston canned the idea.
