Hero: The Official Film of the 1986 FIFA World Cup

Third_Echelon

I've been trying to get this movie/documentary on DVD for years!

It's the documentary of the 1986 World Cup in Mexico. I used to watch this video about once per week when I was a kid. Its a classic with great behind the scenes footage of Maradona, Lineker etc.

We were talking today in work about this, and it reminded me that I should actually do something about getting a copy of it again. I think i actually wore the tape down all those years ago

Here's the IMDB link: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0093181/

Anyone know if you can get this on DVD or any other format apart from video?

Just found the video for ya for £4.99, i'm sure you can get it copied onto a dvd handy enough:

Jaysus, there's a memory. When I was a lad, my Da used to get a loan of the 1986 Hero one, and the 1982 Gole one for two weeks every summer, and I'd watch it every day for the two weeks on the holidays. Getting teary-eyed now.

i never actually thought about getting it transferred to DVD! Great idea!

It is a true classic though!

Yeah, I love the Hero documentary too. I have it on VHS recorded frmoEurosport during the 1990 World Cup. It really captures the excitement and genius of maradone. Narrated byMichael Caine if memory serves.
