We provide you with all the information you require about the most recent football documentary, which centres on one of England’s top goal scorers, Peter Crouch, who is enjoying his adventure 25 years after signing his first professional contract.
Crouch is the most recent participant to get a film deal, and football movies have recently attracted a sizable audience.
The 90-minute film centres on a player who was labelled a “misfit” in the Premier League and slowly and surely disproved every sceptic on his journey to becoming one of the league’s most recognisable goal scorers.
Crouch who will be remembered for his jaw-dropping goals, shunting replies, and lanky figure, clarifies in his story how he reached the top stage in English football and most importantly how he prepared himself at every moment when his back was against the wall.
Here, we take a look at what it’s about, how to watch it and more.
What Is ‘That Peter Crouch Film’?
‘That Peter Crouch Film’ is a one and half hour movie focused on the life of the former Stoke City and Liverpool striker and how he established himself as one of the most likeable names in the football fraternity.
It is the story of a tall, lanky, all-arms-and-legs player who defied his detractors and overcame the difficulties he faced as a professional footballer despite being passed over by practically every side he signed for.
The movie concentrates on Crouch’s professional career to show the highs and lows a football player goes through.
From being jeered by English fans in 2005, which Crouch regards to be the lowest point of his career, to regaining their respect in front of them during the 2006 World Cup, viewers can expect a roller-coaster of emotions throughout the event.
‘That Peter Crouch Film’ features some of the biggest names the forward met in his life from Harry Redknapp to Steven Gerard and some of his family members who stuck by him throughout his journey.
When asked about his career Crouch calls it a “different kind of success story because it hasn’t been plain sailing”, and the goal drought he had at Liverpool is a perfect example of the lows the former striker talks about.
But like he silenced his doubters at every other step during his career, this documentary is also a reflection of the same.
And his podcast ‘That Peter Crouch Podcast’ which has garnered over 60 million followers and Therapy With Crouch’- where he elaborates on his relationship with his wife Clancy- play a huge role in getting the documentary the much-needed success it needs and deserves.
