The Goal, Nono the ZigZag Kid, Christmoose Story

Watched three movies as mentioned above.
Incidentally all three movies were watched on Tata Sky Video on Demand Service
-------------------------------------------------------------
The Goal
This Irfan Khan 1999 movie was watched again and realised that it is just too good.
Few more points were noted in the second watch.
  • Irfan gets injured and so he becomes a coach due to love for the game.
  • The class mentality is more prominent in football and when the "class is eliminated" in football it is the ultimate elimination. 
  • In cricket "class mentality" can creep in less as it is "gentleman's game" and anyone who dons the cricket gear is another league altogether.
  • Significant injury resulting in loss of play will be lesser in cricket I feel.
  • Irfan joins as a coach due to his friends calling and towards the end it is shown that his friend is not pleased when the team loses and so he walks away and returns the money offered to him as advance.
  • We are inclined to believe that the money returned by Irfan is "less expenses" as the bundle appears a bit smaller than 50 100 rupee notes. But the truth is we will never know.

Nono the ZigZag Kid
This is Nederlands movie so I assume it would be in Dutch language with English subtitles.
Thoroughly enjoyable movie. I liked it.
It is like a fairy tale movie and many decades are merged like 60's 70's 80's 90's that is whhat I felt.

Christmoose Story
This is Nederlands movie so I assume it would be in Dutch language with English subtitles.
Thoroughly enjoyable movie. I liked it.
It is like a fairy tale movie and the moose is actually the one who pulls Santa's cart to deliver gifts.
