The Damned United (Film), released 2009 — adapted from The Damned Utd by David Peace.
Taking over Leeds United, Brian Clough's abrasive approach and his clear dislike of the players' dirty style of play make it certain there is going to be friction. Glimpses of his earlier career help explain both his hostility to previous manager Don Revie and how much he is missing right-hand man Peter Taylor.
Starring Michael Sheen, Timothy Spall, Colm Meaney, Jim Broadbent, Maurice Roëves.
Directed by Tom Hooper.
