About Sunday Heroes
Gino Bardi is a centre-forward in a football team which is about to be relegated to the second division. Just before a very important match a girl he has a relationship with proposes him to rig it. He refuses the offer but he actually begins playing like an amateur and the crowd begin to smell something fishy going on.
Directed by Mario Camerini, Sunday Heroes leans on a strong ensemble — Raf Vallone, Cosetta Greco, Marcello Mastroianni — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1952.
