But the controversies about this and that are a bit self-serving; it would have been interesting to hear Diego tell the truth about the infamous "sold" scudetto to Milan by the camorra, the one that then kicked off the rossonera epic. Who knows how things would have turned out if Diego's Napoli, instead of accepting "an offer they couldn't refuse" (which made many players wealthy), had won that scudetto. By the way, if we want to set the record straight about 6-1, the only one I remember is that of Lippi's Juve against Sacchi's Milan post-Tabarez, and moreover at San Siro, a real lesson in football...

There was also a humiliating 5-1 defeat against Juve in the Italian Super Cup final: if I’m not mistaken, that match marked the debut of Maifredi's champagne Juventus... :D

Beautiful record, probably one of the peaks reached by Uncle Frank. The review is very nice too.

@Fiquata - I’ll close this discussion with two or three quick observations: no one should stay quiet, you should know this well since even you can speak without anyone stopping you; I’m a bit worried about your serial killer attitude that, due to a negative comment, you rushed to inform yourself here and there (so much free time, huh?); you'll learn as you grow that personal insults lead nowhere, just as you’ll learn that db is a nice place unfortunately ruined by so many know-it-alls like you, who seize every opportunity to vent their frustration and feel insulted by lèse-majesté every time they're criticized (is it possible you always take everything personally? don't you have private lives to fill?); last thing: the meaning of the review and the comment. They may even be the same, since it seems clear that you and I both appreciate the film/documentary by Kusturica and Diego Armando Maradona. However, if the meaning is the same, I really didn’t like the way you wrote your review, with that self-satisfied tone, that awful ending about Manu Chao (I hope you were joking...), with the missing rhythm and everything feeling pre-cooked, with that atmosphere of a well-executed homework but without soul. That’s it. Apparently, according to you, if someone expresses a personal opinion then it must lead to personal insults, but I can assure you that among intelligent people it usually doesn’t work that way. But who cares, on Db it’s (almost) always like this: after ten comments, everything goes to hell, so there’s no problem. Or perhaps, more simply, I’m very envious of your writing ability and your savoir-faire, maybe it’s a subversive plan against you… well done, well done.

Core to Core - Look, I've only expressed a judgment regarding a review that, while reviewing a beautiful film/documentary, I didn't like at all. In response, the reviewer first went and insulted me in another review (a great sign of maturity), then continued in this one, and even more nerdily, went off the deep end to read my comments around the db (for the series "I’m a very busy person"). This is not about rhetoric, personal judgments, maturity, or writing ability; it's about education and intelligence. That's all. And please, nobody loses sleep over things like this because in recent years on Debaser we've seen thousands of them (although usually there's more irony and less bitterness and frustration, like in this case).

@Fiquata - Well done, I see that you enjoy arguing your theses and ideas without gratuitous offenses and, above all, that you are a person open to criticism. Maybe I don't know how to write, but just think that for over ten years I've been paid to do it, and this is how I make a living. I would also like to point out that none of my reviews mention Padania, but I don't want to keep beating around the bush; it's obvious you don't read very well. At this point, I would feel like bringing up another classic topic from Debaser, which is the fact that someone who writes what you do is probably around 15 years old or so, but I'd rather go to bed (of course, envying your open-mindedness, intelligence, and willingness to engage in dialogue).

Incredible. I'm always left speechless in front of the geniuses who, when faced with criticism or negative feedback on their review, rush to leave unpleasant and offensive comments on the reviews of those who dared to disagree. And the best part is that this behavior is pretty standard... By the way, with this performance, you go straight into the gallery of human cases.
P.S.
Of course, when I was talking about Claudia, I meant Claudia Maradona, Diego's ex-wife.

No one understood Maradona. Maybe only Claudia. After all, you don't need to understand him to realize he was the greatest of all time: for what he did on the field, for what he didn't do on the field, and for the entirety of a life lived to the fullest and burned out moment by moment. This film is a masterpiece: on few occasions do we get to see so much life taken from the streets and forcefully crammed into a film. A film for many but not for everyone; precisely for this reason, if someone doesn’t realize it, it’s useless to waste time discussing it.
Ah, I almost forgot: terrible review. Long live la mano de Dios!
