Luckily for me, not knowing much about football did not ruin my viewing pleasure. At first, watching somebody become so obsessed with a game is quite worrying, but as the film progresses and we learn more about Paul, we understand him and his obsession a little more. Although I am not sure if Colin Firth is a major footie fan, the way in which he acts out his part makes the reader believe that he is. Also, the way in which Sarah (Ruth Gemmell) struggles to understand his football fever is particularly amusing and for most women, her character is probably one of the easiest to relate too! A must see for all Arsenal fans...and all Firth Fans, such as myself, this film is a true bred British film and we should be proud of it!
