Every great sports movie (or movie in general, for that matter) should understand that it's not about the final match, the last lap, or the knockout; it's about the people behind it all. Something exceedingly elementary that another one of Apple TV+'s distributed works, Ted Lasso, understands to the umpteenth degree. Sure, the racing scenes are an electric treat and gripping as all hell, but I just saw Brad Pitt going on an ego trip as Brad Pitt and nothing more. I don't care about boxing, and I sure as hell don't care about soccer, but I love Rocky and Ted Lasso warms my heart and wets my cheeks through anything but the "big game." also fuck all that Lebron's coming to Philly and now I suddenly care about basketball
