The Damned United

Fact and fiction mix in Hooper's bio of 70s-era football team manager Brian Clough (Sheen) who goes from successfully remaking Derby County into a winner to lead their archrivals Leeds United, where he quickly alienates both players and management. Follows typical rise-and-fall-of-the-rebel theme but Sheen kicks it up a notch (in fact, the role was reportedly written for him). More focused on Clough's hyper-competitive personality than the actual sport.
