This Sporting Life
1963 · Movie · 129 min. · United Kingdom
Richard Harris is Frank Machin, an aggressive rugby-playing miner in the north of England who destroys the relationship he wants most by the force of his rebellious will. Anderson's incisive comment on class expatiation is as forceful as it is subtly riveting.
