Pete’s Film Club: The Keeper

That’s right, folks: Pete’s broken into the abandoned Blockbuster on the seafront and grabbed another harrowing selection of football films for the other lads to hatewatch and you to enjoy! First up, the autobiographical tale of German PoW turned Manchester City goalkeeper, Bert Trautmann.

Straight out the gate, Pete’s heart sunk at the prospect of authentic, intimate on-screen love – though it is spiced up by plenty of forward rolls and extensive wartime anti-German sentiment. It Was A Different Time™, of course.

It’s basically a two-hour version of Heartbeat with some diving goalkeepers and offensive accents. But, worryingly, it’s actually… decent?! Let’s get into it!
