Opening this Friday, in New York and Los Angeles, is director Tom Hooper’s “The Damned United”. The film was written by Peter Morgan and it stars Michael Sheen as Brian Clough – the very famous and very controversial football coach of Leeds United. At least he was for 44 days back in the 1974. Anyway, the film tells the story of where Brian Clough came from and what happened in those 44 days. As you might imagine, Michael Sheen completely disappears in the part and while I’m not a big football (soccer) fan, I really enjoyed “The Damned United” and think if you follow any sport, you’ll also enjoy this movie. So to help promote the film, I recently sat down with this great actor and our conversation is after the jump.

Opening on October 9th in New York and Los Angeles is director Tom Hooper’s “The Damned United”. The film was written by Peter Morgan and it stars Michael Sheen as Brian Clough – the very famous and very controversial football coach of Leeds United. At least he was for 44 days back in the 1974. Anyway, the film tells the story of where Brian Clough came from and what exactly happened that led to his departure after such a short time. As you might imagine, Michael Sheen is excellent and completely disappears in the part. And while I’m not a huge football (soccer) fan, I really enjoyed “The Damned United” and think if you like any sport, you’ll find a lot in this movie to enjoy. So to help promote the film, we’ve been given 5 clips and you can watch them after the jump. Take a look:
