Thread: If you enjoyed Wales in France you must watch this

    If you enjoyed Wales in France you must watch this

    Probably already posted, but 'Don't Take Me Home' by Jonny Owens is a fantastic look back at an amazing month.
    Just came back now from watching with my ever patient wife who also thoroughly enjoyed the tournament and the film.

    A thousand memories, mostly good, but some sad ( one of my best and long term friends was due to travel to Bordeaux with me for the first game, but passed away with cancer a week before) and some very special- taking my lad to the semis on the day of his 15th and sharing special times in France with my wife and mates.

    All came flooding back.

    Excellent production-really enjoyed it.The National Anthem in Bordeaux was amazing.Impressed with Neil Taylor and Ben Davies in their interviews-a brilliant reminder of a wonderful time for Welsh football and it's fans.

    Yes the anthem in Bordeaux was tremendous.One of three moments in the film when I had tears in my eyes.

    Pearcey, those p***ks at the Screening Room cancelled the film on the day. They can stick their £18 up their a**e. Anyway, got free tickets from them and went to see in Cardiff today. Great film that captured the mood really well.

    That day and singing it at Wembley, fantastic moments.

    I also went today & thoroughly enjoyed it. It brought back some great memories & also some sad ones via the Gary Speed coverage which was done in a very respectful way. One thing that really shone through was what a great bunch of lads we have representing our country on the pitch, all of them spoke well & with real fondness about this great experience. The same can be said of Chris Coleman & the other members of the backroom staff who all gave a very good account of themselves.

    There was also a great deal of well deserved positive coverage about our support which was brilliant to see.

    Overall a film which contained lot's of passion, humour & joy which showed Wales in a very positive light - Credit to Jonny Owen for a superb piece of work

    They all spoke very eloquently too, and with a smile on their faces. My overriding memory from the film is that how gutted Ramsey was that he couldn't play. I really think he thought we'd have gone the whole way had he played. In fairness, I've only thought about him in the semi 56,543 times. One of those things though and a great film which summed up an even better summer.

    But there is nothing to watch

    Shirley, the title should read "GO AND SEE THIS"

    Thats a crappy thing to do. It was a complete rip off at £18 a pop anyway

    There don't seem to be many dates left so if you haven't seen it and want to please try to arrange before Thursday.
