At turns heart-wrenching and inspiring, this fact-based British drama tells the story of England's Manchester United soccer club in the late '50s.

As one of the tragedy's survivors, forward Bobby Charlton (Jack O'Connell) fought to overcome his grief and restore the club's spirit. David Tennant, Kate Ashfield co-star. 90 min. Soundtrack: English.
