English soccer ace David Beckham is set to make his big screen debut in Mel Gibson's sports film Goal!. The Real Madrid player will take a small role, playing himself alongside teammates Zinedine Zidane and Raul, in the film about South American football star Santiago - played by Diego Luna - who signs for English team Newcastle United. And Beckham's England teammates Kieron Dyer and Wayne Rooney will also star in the movie, which is financed by Gibson's Icon Productions and directed by Danny Cannon. Beckham enthuses, "I believe the Goal! trilogy will provide a positive message to kids around the world."
So Mr Beckham is making a movie eh.......hey I'll go see it.....he doesn't stike me as being very bright but he's easy on the eye .....and I'd watch anything once!
Eh, I don't really go for sports movies, myself. Bend It Like Beckham was really good, though. Think I'd prefer a film that mentions a sports star rather than a film that features them.
Life often leaves us standing bare, naked and dejected with a lost opportunity. Over the bleached bones and jumbled residues of numerous civilizations are written the pathetic words: "Too late."
.....and I'd watch anything once!
