Let The Games Begin: The Damned United + Talk (15)

Football expert and author David Goldblatt gives a special talk on football legend Brian Clough, the prolific but unlucky centre-forward, who became the towering manager who steered Nottingham Forest to Cup victories at home and in Europe. Followed by a screening of The Damned United, Tom Hoopers’ darkly humorous study of Clough’s tempestuous six weeks in charge of Leeds United, written by Peter Morgan (Frost/Nixon) and based on the controversial novel by David Peace.

Showing with Short Mental Block by Karen Palmer.


Let The Games Begin

Please note: this is a old season with no further events to see

Let the Games Begin reflects on the cultural and social significance of sport. Whilst sport and culture might not seem the most natural of companions, there is an incredible richness created when the two worlds come together as this season of films, talks and games demonstrates.
