Synopsis "Four Lions: The Lives and Times of Four Captains of England"
Explore the changing landscape of postwar England through the careers of four iconic soccer captains: Billy Wright, Bobby Moore, Gary Lineker, and David Beckham. In England, more than any other nation, the man with the captain's armband has symbolic significance: he embodies the nation. And these four lions embody half a century of change: Wright smoked a pipe and had a side parting; Moore, hero of '66, exuded the cool of his era but never found a role beyond sports; the savvy, telegenic Lineker hung up his boots to become the face of BBC soccer; while in the tattooed body of Beckham can be read the impact of commercialization, corporate sponsorship and the cult of celebrity.
