Number One (1969)
Director: Tom Gries
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
As his fortieth year approaches, American footballer Heston finds his marriage falling apart and his playing career with the New Orleans Saints in its twilight, an odd role for one of the monolithic heroes of the Hollywood screen, and one that he doesn't seem to be able to do much with. Pretty banal, for Heston completists only.Author: TJ
