1
00:00:07,632 --> 00:00:09,718
[birds chirping]
2
00:00:11,219 --> 00:00:13,930
[light, contemplative music playing]
3
00:00:17,350 --> 00:00:18,768
[David] I wanted a place
4
00:00:19,352 --> 00:00:21,104
where we could escape.
5
00:00:21,730 --> 00:00:23,898
As soon as I get into the countryside,
6
00:00:23,982 --> 00:00:27,610
I normally get into my whole
country getup, which I'm not now.
7
00:00:28,319 --> 00:00:30,780
And I've got a stick and I walk around.
8
00:00:30,864 --> 00:00:33,783
I sit out here, have a cup of coffee.
9
00:00:33,867 --> 00:00:35,869
[music continues]
10
00:00:37,620 --> 00:00:38,955
[Fisher] I like this spot.
11
00:00:39,664 --> 00:00:41,541
My favorite view of the house.
12
00:00:44,502 --> 00:00:47,589
I can also see Victoria
if she's naked, in the top window.
13
00:00:47,672 --> 00:00:48,882
[chuckling]
14
00:00:50,842 --> 00:00:52,969
-[Fisher] What is this, a pitch?
-[David] Yeah.
15
00:00:53,053 --> 00:00:55,722
[Fisher] How often do you
still kick a soccer ball?
16
00:00:55,805 --> 00:00:57,182
Oh, sorry. Football.
17
00:00:57,265 --> 00:00:59,267
[David] Romeo comes out here all the time.
18
00:00:59,934 --> 00:01:02,979
He wants a match
between my mates and his mates.
19
00:01:03,063 --> 00:01:05,231
He said, "Who would you invite?"
And I said, "Well,
20
00:01:06,858 --> 00:01:10,070
maybe I'd get Gary round,"
and he was like, "Okay."
21
00:01:12,113 --> 00:01:15,283
And I said I could probably get
Roberto Carlos to come over,
22
00:01:15,366 --> 00:01:18,244
and maybe, uh,
maybe Ronaldo, he would step over.
23
00:01:19,621 --> 00:01:22,582
Maybe Figo, maybe Zidane.
24
00:01:22,665 --> 00:01:26,628
He'd be like, "Well, that's not fair.
Why would you do that?"
25
00:01:28,254 --> 00:01:31,299
And I'd be like, "Because I'm gonna win.
We're gonna win."
26
00:01:31,382 --> 00:01:33,718
[music ends]
27
00:01:33,802 --> 00:01:35,553
I'm not letting his mates beat us.
28
00:01:37,180 --> 00:01:39,599
[Fisher]
David has a very small pitch in England.
29
00:01:39,682 --> 00:01:42,310
He said, "One day, I wanna get
Figo and Ronaldo
30
00:01:42,393 --> 00:01:44,437
to play my son and his friends."
31
00:01:44,521 --> 00:01:46,397
Maybe we could just arrange a game.
32
00:01:47,565 --> 00:01:48,817
Against his kids?
33
00:01:50,401 --> 00:01:52,237
I will kill them. The kids.
34
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:53,363
[chuckles]
35
00:01:55,406 --> 00:01:58,618
[dramatic cinematic music playing]
36
00:02:17,595 --> 00:02:19,180
[David] We had a short honeymoon.
37
00:02:19,264 --> 00:02:23,560
And we ended up at Andrew Lloyd Webber's
house in the South of France.
38
00:02:23,643 --> 00:02:25,770
I have no idea how we ended up there.
39
00:02:27,063 --> 00:02:29,983
We were meant to be there for ten days.
40
00:02:30,817 --> 00:02:34,070
But the manager called me
about five days in, said,
41
00:02:34,154 --> 00:02:35,905
"I need you back in training."
42
00:02:37,657 --> 00:02:39,993
[Gary] Ringing David up five days
after his wedding
43
00:02:40,076 --> 00:02:43,163
is classic Sir Alex Ferguson.
44
00:02:43,246 --> 00:02:45,874
"Get back here,
you flash bastard." [laughs]
45
00:02:45,957 --> 00:02:48,835
[dramatic cinematic music continues]
46
00:02:48,918 --> 00:02:51,337
Sir Alex Ferguson had an uncanny habit…
47
00:02:52,255 --> 00:02:54,591
[music stops]
48
00:02:55,425 --> 00:02:57,302
…of bringing you back down to earth.
49
00:02:58,511 --> 00:02:59,554
[indistinct chatter]
50
00:02:59,637 --> 00:03:03,224
[Fisher] Did you think it'd be difficult
for him to keep his focus at that point?
51
00:03:03,308 --> 00:03:05,435
At that point, it was not a problem.
52
00:03:06,769 --> 00:03:08,188
But he was a stubborn lad.
53
00:03:08,271 --> 00:03:09,314
[crowd chanting]
54
00:03:09,397 --> 00:03:12,942
[commentator] Welcome to the start
of a new English football season.
55
00:03:13,026 --> 00:03:15,403
United, of course, the treble winners.
56
00:03:15,486 --> 00:03:19,115
And the newly-knighted Sir Alex Ferguson.
57
00:03:19,199 --> 00:03:22,410
The job he has this season
is lifting his players
58
00:03:22,493 --> 00:03:24,829
to perform more heroics.
59
00:03:25,872 --> 00:03:29,209
[Alex] He was stubborn in the sense
that a lot of people are stubborn.
60
00:03:29,709 --> 00:03:31,711
And it's not a criticism,
61
00:03:31,794 --> 00:03:34,923
it's, it's part of the makeup that,
62
00:03:35,006 --> 00:03:37,800
they've got a determination
about them and they've got
63
00:03:37,884 --> 00:03:39,677
a certain desire about them
64
00:03:39,761 --> 00:03:42,680
that they don't want people
to change them.
65
00:03:43,181 --> 00:03:46,267
[commentator] Beckham, of course,
just finished his honeymoon.
66
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:49,229
The honeymoon is over.
67
00:03:50,188 --> 00:03:51,522
[slow, tense violin music]
68
00:03:51,606 --> 00:03:53,274
[Fisher] Okay. So, what happened?
69
00:03:53,983 --> 00:03:57,487
I went to an event
in London with Victoria.
70
00:03:57,570 --> 00:03:59,781
[frantic violin music playing]
71
00:04:00,531 --> 00:04:02,825
Went back to Victoria's house,
72
00:04:02,909 --> 00:04:05,536
and Brooklyn has a really,
really high temperature.
73
00:04:06,829 --> 00:04:09,332
And he wakes up throughout the night.
74
00:04:10,083 --> 00:04:12,252
I phoned in and just said,
75
00:04:12,335 --> 00:04:16,506
"I'm not gonna be at training today
because Brooklyn is terribly ill."
76
00:04:18,841 --> 00:04:20,969
I don't think anyone believed me.
77
00:04:24,264 --> 00:04:27,475
Because I got pictured
with a glass of champagne.
78
00:04:29,769 --> 00:04:33,481
[indistinct chatter]
79
00:04:33,564 --> 00:04:36,150
Went to go into training the next day.
80
00:04:36,234 --> 00:04:37,986
[music continues]
81
00:04:38,069 --> 00:04:41,572
And the boss came out
and told me to go inside.
82
00:04:41,656 --> 00:04:44,784
So then, obviously,
we had a bit of an argument on the pitch.
83
00:04:45,827 --> 00:04:49,747
[reporter] This morning's headlines told
of the hard line according to Sir Alex.
84
00:04:50,999 --> 00:04:54,711
Parents in Manchester were divided
on the David-as-doting-dad issue.
85
00:04:54,794 --> 00:04:58,631
-Stay at home and your kids come first.
-He should have supported his team.
86
00:04:58,715 --> 00:05:00,717
[person screams]
87
00:05:04,429 --> 00:05:06,139
[woman] Alex, God bless you!
88
00:05:08,725 --> 00:05:10,810
[David] I had a hairdresser
at the time called Tyler.
89
00:05:10,893 --> 00:05:12,812
I said I'm gonna cut my hair, he was like,
90
00:05:12,895 --> 00:05:14,856
"Are you sure? You really wanna do that?"
91
00:05:17,859 --> 00:05:20,361
[Ole] Before the game, David has a hat on.
92
00:05:21,195 --> 00:05:25,783
And Sir Alex asks him to take his hat off.
93
00:05:26,409 --> 00:05:27,285
"No."
94
00:05:27,952 --> 00:05:30,038
And he said, "David, take the cap off."
95
00:05:30,538 --> 00:05:31,581
And I said, "No."
96
00:05:32,540 --> 00:05:33,708
Stubbornness.
97
00:05:34,917 --> 00:05:36,544
And then I said, "Oh well."
98
00:05:36,627 --> 00:05:38,838
[crowd shouting]
99
00:05:41,758 --> 00:05:43,926
[commentator 1] There's a new look
about David Beckham.
100
00:05:45,303 --> 00:05:47,597
The blond locks have gone.
101
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:50,850
The sight of the skinhead
will take a bit of getting used to.
102
00:05:51,434 --> 00:05:53,186
[scoffs] Come on.
103
00:05:53,770 --> 00:05:55,271
You're asking for a bollocking.
104
00:05:55,355 --> 00:05:56,564
You're asking for trouble.
105
00:05:58,232 --> 00:06:00,360
He knew that would piss Sir Alex off.
106
00:06:00,443 --> 00:06:02,779
["Salute Your Solution"
by The Raconteurs playing]
107
00:06:04,781 --> 00:06:06,032
So why do it?
108
00:06:08,701 --> 00:06:10,578
That was his personality.
109
00:06:10,661 --> 00:06:12,872
-[Fisher] Never bothered you?
-Never bothered me.
110
00:06:12,955 --> 00:06:15,166
I thought, "You better
back it up at the weekend."
111
00:06:16,501 --> 00:06:17,668
[commentator 1] Beckham.
112
00:06:18,503 --> 00:06:20,129
He was always gonna go for it!
113
00:06:20,213 --> 00:06:23,800
Oh yes! A new look,
but the same old free kicks.
114
00:06:27,804 --> 00:06:30,056
[woman] Did it affect your relationship
with Sir Alex?
115
00:06:30,139 --> 00:06:31,766
No. Not at all.
116
00:06:32,266 --> 00:06:34,644
-Are you afraid of him?
-At times.
117
00:06:34,727 --> 00:06:37,897
[man] Okay, at the moment,
Alex is saying he doesn't want to talk.
118
00:06:37,980 --> 00:06:41,651
I don't think anybody's upset him.
But we've asked for Beckham's hairdresser.
119
00:06:41,734 --> 00:06:44,779
I never did it to create attention.
120
00:06:44,862 --> 00:06:45,988
I'm not that person.
121
00:06:46,072 --> 00:06:48,533
[crowd cheering]
122
00:06:48,616 --> 00:06:50,868
["Salute Your Solution" continues]
123
00:06:50,952 --> 00:06:52,703
[James] When David Beckham
shaved his head,
124
00:06:52,787 --> 00:06:55,206
I honestly thought
a member of my family had died.
125
00:06:55,289 --> 00:06:56,874
Because my phone went off.
126
00:06:56,958 --> 00:07:00,461
The panic in people's voices that this…
We haven't got it documented.
127
00:07:03,881 --> 00:07:06,259
Do you know,
this is going to take absolutely ages.
128
00:07:09,137 --> 00:07:10,304

[commentator 2] Beckham.
Turns. Four-nil.

[whistle blows]
133
00:07:18,479 --> 00:07:20,982
Kids, "I wanna be David Beckham.
I want to shave my head."
134
00:07:21,065 --> 00:07:24,360
And schools were, like,
having to write in, "No shaving of heads."
135
00:07:25,736 --> 00:07:27,655
We wanted to be like he was.
136
00:07:28,239 --> 00:07:31,200
[commentator 1]
Surely, a job for David Beckham. Oh!
137
00:07:31,284 --> 00:07:33,411
Oh! Brilliant!
138
00:07:33,494 --> 00:07:36,914
[Victoria] David starts going from a boy…
139
00:07:36,998 --> 00:07:38,791
[commentator 1] That was Beckham!
140
00:07:38,875 --> 00:07:40,543
[Victoria] …to a man.
141
00:07:40,626 --> 00:07:43,588
It's only natural that you'll start
flexing your muscles, right?
142
00:07:43,671 --> 00:07:45,089
[music continues]
143
00:07:45,173 --> 00:07:47,300
It's a brilliant goal from Beckham!
144
00:07:49,218 --> 00:07:51,053
[Victoria] And don't all kids…
145
00:07:51,137 --> 00:07:52,638
[commentator 2]
Maybe the party started.
146
00:07:53,556 --> 00:07:56,934
-…rebel against their parents?
-[music stops]
147
00:07:59,812 --> 00:08:04,025
He's leaving school and he's going north.
Now, what's going to happen?
148
00:08:04,108 --> 00:08:07,612
He'll move out to Manchester.
He'll either finish his schooling there…
149
00:08:07,695 --> 00:08:10,698
-[man] Won't you miss home?
-I probably will miss it a little bit.
150
00:08:10,781 --> 00:08:12,992
But I'll be doing what I want to do, so…
151
00:08:13,910 --> 00:08:16,245
He was very homesick
when he went to Manchester.
152
00:08:16,829 --> 00:08:17,663
Really homesick.
153
00:08:17,747 --> 00:08:19,916
[contemplative piano music playing]
154
00:08:19,999 --> 00:08:22,210
He called me and said he had a toothache,
155
00:08:22,293 --> 00:08:24,378
but he just wanted to see us, I think.
156
00:08:24,462 --> 00:08:26,214
It wasn't really a toothache.
157
00:08:26,297 --> 00:08:28,549
I had a lot of toothaches, I must admit.
158
00:08:28,633 --> 00:08:30,176
I got homesick quite a lot.
159
00:08:30,259 --> 00:08:31,135
[chuckles]
160
00:08:31,219 --> 00:08:33,763
My mum was like,
"Shall we go down?" And my dad was like,
161
00:08:34,555 --> 00:08:35,556
"Absolutely not."
162
00:08:36,474 --> 00:08:38,976
[woman] Come on, Alex,
give us a smile. Stay still.
163
00:08:39,060 --> 00:08:42,563
Sir Alex was the closest thing,
other than his dad, as a father.
164
00:08:42,647 --> 00:08:43,689
Simple as that.
165
00:08:43,773 --> 00:08:47,610
He's had this unbelievable effect
on David's life. Really has.
166
00:08:49,237 --> 00:08:53,241
One game, the manager sat me,
literally, the row behind the bench.
167
00:08:53,324 --> 00:08:56,285
[music becomes more dramatic]
168
00:08:58,037 --> 00:08:59,830
[Steve] This kid was in the dressing room.
169
00:09:00,957 --> 00:09:02,375
Sitting next to us.
170
00:09:02,458 --> 00:09:04,377
And we look at him and think, "Well,
171
00:09:04,460 --> 00:09:07,213
he must be some player,
this kid, 'cause he's only 13, 14,
172
00:09:07,296 --> 00:09:08,839
and we haven't seen this before."
173
00:09:08,923 --> 00:09:11,092
Sir Alex wouldn't let anybody
near the team…
174
00:09:11,175 --> 00:09:12,260
[Paul Ince] Becks.
175
00:09:12,343 --> 00:09:14,053
[Steve] …let alone this young kid.
176
00:09:15,012 --> 00:09:17,974
We take the mickey out of him
a little bit. "Are you here again?"
177
00:09:18,057 --> 00:09:19,183
"Are you here again?"
178
00:09:19,767 --> 00:09:22,061
We brought you in the dressing room,
you sat there,
179
00:09:22,144 --> 00:09:25,022
and Brucie says,
"You better turn out some player."
180
00:09:25,106 --> 00:09:28,401
"The treatment we're giving you.
You better turn out some player."
181
00:09:28,484 --> 00:09:32,446
[David] The way Sir Alex Ferguson was
with me, from a very young age,
182
00:09:32,530 --> 00:09:33,739
was special.
183
00:09:33,823 --> 00:09:37,743
So it just shows you, we had you monitored
right from an early age, my young man.
184
00:09:38,744 --> 00:09:40,788
It was a family, and that's why…
185
00:09:40,871 --> 00:09:42,957
[music continues]
186
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:44,792
…we had the success that we had.
187

[music stops]
188
00:09:48,462 --> 00:09:51,674
There's Britain's most famous,
photographed and gossiped-about couple.
189
00:09:51,757 --> 00:09:53,092
Welcome, please, the Beckhams!
190
00:09:53,175 --> 00:09:56,012
[jazzy big band music playing]
191
00:10:00,349 --> 00:10:03,060
You've written this book, Victoria,
called Learning to Fly,
192
00:10:03,144 --> 00:10:04,270
your autobiography.
193
00:10:04,353 --> 00:10:07,565
David, what about you? You read this book,
did you, from the beginning?
194
00:10:07,648 --> 00:10:10,443
-No, I'm halfway through it at the moment.
-You're halfway…
195
00:10:11,986 --> 00:10:15,531
We're lying in bed, he'll be reading
the book, and he'll look at me like that.
196
00:10:15,615 --> 00:10:18,534
I'm like, "Oh God. What have I said?"
197
00:10:19,285 --> 00:10:21,370
[Victoria] I was saying
to David this morning,
198
00:10:21,454 --> 00:10:26,125
I barely recognize me
and David from back then.
199
00:10:27,209 --> 00:10:28,210
[Victoria] What?
200
00:10:29,045 --> 00:10:30,671
[David] You doing that corn on the cob.
201
00:10:30,755 --> 00:10:33,090
I know.
We're gonna look at this and cringe.
202
00:10:33,174 --> 00:10:35,926
[Victoria] They feel like
two strange characters.
203
00:10:36,010 --> 00:10:38,012
Can I have a cup of tea, please, Princess?
204
00:10:38,721 --> 00:10:41,474
Or do you decide when I have a cup of tea?
205
00:10:41,557 --> 00:10:43,726
I'll tell you when
you can have a cup of tea.
206
00:10:43,809 --> 00:10:47,229
-I wear the trousers, don't forget.
-Okay. Sorry, Princess.
207
00:10:48,856 --> 00:10:52,401
I was always much more outspoken
than I am now.
208
00:10:52,485 --> 00:10:55,696
On the touchy subject again,
which you've touched about in your book,
209
00:10:55,780 --> 00:10:58,240
about Sir Alex Ferguson, you say
210
00:10:58,324 --> 00:11:01,369
that in four years of knowing him,
all he's said to you is "hello."
211
00:11:01,452 --> 00:11:03,204
Are you getting the message now?
212
00:11:03,287 --> 00:11:07,208
I mean, I think that there are certain
things in the book that I had to address.
213
00:11:07,291 --> 00:11:11,462
But at the end of the day,
you know, she's got a great relationship
214
00:11:11,545 --> 00:11:13,756
with Alex Ferguson, Sir Alex Ferguson.
215
00:11:14,548 --> 00:11:16,175
Do you have a pet nickname for him?
216
00:11:17,218 --> 00:11:18,219
Fergie.
217
00:11:18,302 --> 00:11:20,304
[audience laughs]
218
00:11:23,307 --> 00:11:26,018
[commentator]
It's Manchester United's final home game.
219
00:11:26,102 --> 00:11:28,562
[moody, dramatic music playing]
220
00:11:28,646 --> 00:11:29,855
David Beckham.
221
00:11:29,939 --> 00:11:32,191
Oh, what a brilliant goal!
222
00:11:32,274 --> 00:11:35,152
Fantastic goal by David Beckham
223
00:11:35,236 --> 00:11:38,072
who milks the applause, and why not?
224
00:11:39,323 --> 00:11:43,661
[Victoria]
I remember it being quite obvious
225
00:11:43,744 --> 00:11:46,747
that he wasn't keen on me.
226
00:11:46,831 --> 00:11:49,083
[commentator]
Manchester United have won again.
227
00:11:49,166 --> 00:11:51,836
[Victoria]
And at the time, I didn't understand why.
228
00:11:53,129 --> 00:11:57,299
[Alex] I think that it's the publicity
machine from Victoria's side…
229
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:03,347
has been interfering with his life,
and I says, "You can't have that."
230
00:12:03,431 --> 00:12:07,101
…for your loyalty to this club.
It's-- It's unbelievable.
231
00:12:09,687 --> 00:12:12,857
[Gary] It was getting more tense.
232
00:12:12,940 --> 00:12:14,859
You know, the string was wearing thin.
233
00:12:14,942 --> 00:12:16,485
[moody, dramatic music stops]
234
00:12:22,032 --> 00:12:24,618
He phoned me up and he said, uh,
235
00:12:25,745 --> 00:12:28,080
"Yeah, I've been picked
for the England team, Dad."
236
00:12:28,164 --> 00:12:31,000
I went, "That's great."
He said, "And I've been made captain."
237
00:12:31,083 --> 00:12:32,835
I went, "No."
238
00:12:32,918 --> 00:12:35,087
[journalist 1] Will this be
your proudest moment,
239
00:12:35,171 --> 00:12:37,173
to lead the team to the World Cup?
240
00:12:37,256 --> 00:12:41,135
Um, it will be, fingers crossed,
the proudest moment.
241
00:12:41,844 --> 00:12:44,889
[David]
I couldn't believe it, in all honesty.
242
00:12:44,972 --> 00:12:46,348
England captain.
243
00:12:48,934 --> 00:12:49,852
Yeah.
244
00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:52,521
[Fisher] Big call.
245
00:12:53,272 --> 00:12:54,940
It was a controversial one.
246
00:12:55,024 --> 00:12:56,525
[man] England captain, then.
247
00:12:56,609 --> 00:12:58,319
I know. Can you believe it?
248
00:12:59,153 --> 00:13:02,490
Two years ago,
I was the most hated man by English fans.
249
00:13:02,573 --> 00:13:04,492
[ominous music playing]
250
00:13:04,575 --> 00:13:06,410
And now I'm England captain.
251
00:13:10,539 --> 00:13:13,334
Thousands of football fans
have begun arriving at Old Trafford
252
00:13:13,417 --> 00:13:16,420
for England's crucial World Cup Qualifier
against Greece.
253
00:13:16,504 --> 00:13:18,005
Expectations are running high.
254
00:13:19,173 --> 00:13:22,176
[reporter] They want to see England
on to the finals next year.
255
00:13:22,259 --> 00:13:25,429
Still got to play the match,
but the expectation here is of a win.
256
00:13:25,513 --> 00:13:26,555
[dramatic music playing]
257
00:13:26,639 --> 00:13:29,308
[David]
I was still hated by the England fans,
258
00:13:29,391 --> 00:13:31,602
so every time that I played in any game,
259
00:13:31,685 --> 00:13:33,771
you know, I got abused, I got shouted at.
260
00:13:36,232 --> 00:13:38,317
But it was the perfect situation.
261
00:13:39,568 --> 00:13:41,987
The most important England game
262
00:13:42,071 --> 00:13:44,323
that I'd played in for a long time.
263
00:13:46,826 --> 00:13:48,786
And it just happened to be
264
00:13:48,869 --> 00:13:50,246
at Old Trafford.
265
00:13:52,790 --> 00:13:55,751
[commentator 1] The sun is shining
on this Old Trafford pitch,
266
00:13:55,835 --> 00:13:58,587
and England are wearing
all white this afternoon.
267
00:13:58,671 --> 00:14:00,631
Which is my favorite
England kit to play in.
268
00:14:00,714 --> 00:14:03,926
[commentator 1] We'll hope for an angelic
performance from one or two of them.
269
00:14:04,009 --> 00:14:06,387
[announcer]
Seven, and captain, David Beckham.
270
00:14:07,304 --> 00:14:09,598
[David] With me captain, for us
271
00:14:09,682 --> 00:14:11,308
to reach the World Cup.
272
00:14:11,851 --> 00:14:13,853
[dramatic music continues]
273
00:14:15,354 --> 00:14:18,315
[commentator 1] Maybe we'll be in
for an anxious opening. I don't know.
274
00:14:19,692 --> 00:14:21,402
It was just too perfect,
275
00:14:22,278 --> 00:14:24,154
so something had to go wrong.
276
00:14:26,490 --> 00:14:28,909
[commentator 1] Charisteas for goal!
And Greece have scored!

Oh, what a blow for England!

00:14:39,378 --> 00:14:41,005
[commentator 3] Dear, dear, dear.
281
00:14:41,714 --> 00:14:43,299
[commentator 1] Neville wants the ball.
282
00:14:43,382 --> 00:14:45,968
He's got the ball. Back again to Beckham.
283
00:14:49,054 --> 00:14:51,891
This is all going the wrong way here
for England at the moment.
284
00:14:52,933 --> 00:14:54,852
[Gary] Being the captain was huge for him.
285
00:14:55,519 --> 00:14:57,646
But when you've got the armband on,
286
00:14:57,730 --> 00:14:59,440
there's nowhere to hide.
287
00:14:59,523 --> 00:15:00,649
You're out there.

00:15:01,817 --> 00:15:04,403

Halftime at Old Trafford. They're booing.

[Gary] It was brutal.
292
00:15:16,498 --> 00:15:18,125
Because more was expected of him.
293
00:15:18,709 --> 00:15:22,004
England need to draw
to qualify for the World Cup.
294
00:15:22,087 --> 00:15:25,257
It will be absolute disaster
and shame if they don't.
295
00:15:25,341 --> 00:15:28,218
How could they have got themselves
into this position anyway?
296
00:15:31,889 --> 00:15:35,225

299

Beckham comes to knock him off the ball
300
00:15:40,481 --> 00:15:42,650
and collect it himself.
Captain's example here.
301
00:15:42,733 --> 00:15:45,277
But who has he got to pass to?
Nobody made the run.
302
00:15:45,361 --> 00:15:47,279
It was like,
"I've got shit to prove here."
303
00:15:48,364 --> 00:15:49,406
To shut people up.

to find a way.
309
00:15:59,959 --> 00:16:02,878
[commentator 1] This is Beckham.
He's working overtime, is Beckham.
310

As horrific as some of the things that
were said about me over the years,
311
00:16:09,843 --> 00:16:11,428
I forgot everything.

[dramatic music continues]
313
00:16:17,935 --> 00:16:21,730
The last four years
had been so tough that, um,
314
00:16:23,315 --> 00:16:26,819
I think it took a toll on me
that probably, uh…
315
00:16:28,862 --> 00:16:30,739
I never even knew myself.
316
00:16:38,038 --> 00:16:40,457
[commentator 1]
Look at Beckham trying to win it back.
317
00:16:44,294 --> 00:16:45,713
He's been like two men.

that could rectify what I did in '98.

Here's Beckham for England.

Still hope, is there? Beckham.
321
00:17:02,312 --> 00:17:04,064
There is still hope. Still Beckham.
322
00:17:04,148 --> 00:17:06,191
While there's Beckham,
there's always hope.
323
00:17:06,275 --> 00:17:10,112
It's a free kick in what is probably
the penultimate minute of the game.

I was a coach or because I was able
to communicate in three language.

developed the upper body.

510
00:26:59,743 --> 00:27:02,245
whatever happens in the dressing room
is sacrosanct.
511
00:27:02,954 --> 00:27:06,791
[reporter] The incident raises a question:
who told the story to the newspapers?
512
00:27:07,459 --> 00:27:09,961
[David] I remember a player
coming up to me that week
513
00:27:10,045 --> 00:27:12,380
and saying,
"The boss turned 'round to the doctor
514
00:27:12,464 --> 00:27:15,175
and said, 'He's been making it worse.'"
515
00:27:15,258 --> 00:27:18,094
And I wasn't. [chuckles] I wasn't.
516
00:27:18,178 --> 00:27:21,306
And contrary to, uh,
contrary to a lot of the reports,
517
00:27:21,389 --> 00:27:24,684
David did not have two stitches
put in his head. He had no stitches.
518
00:27:25,185 --> 00:27:26,645
So it was a graze,
519
00:27:27,312 --> 00:27:30,523
and we move on,
and that's all there is to be said for it.
520
00:27:31,149 --> 00:27:32,817
[moody classical music stops]
521
00:27:32,901 --> 00:27:35,695
[crowd chanting]
522
00:27:35,779 --> 00:27:39,324
[commentator 1] The Champions League
quarterfinal between greats of football,
523
00:27:39,407 --> 00:27:41,618
Manchester United and Real Madrid.
524
00:27:41,701 --> 00:27:43,703
I think we're in
for a fascinating evening.
525
00:27:44,245 --> 00:27:46,247
[mystical music playing]
526
00:27:52,629 --> 00:27:54,881
[commentator 2]
Pay attention, because wherever you go,
527
00:27:54,964 --> 00:27:57,801
this is what everybody
will be talking about tomorrow.
528
00:27:57,884 --> 00:27:59,386
It's showtime.
529
00:28:02,555 --> 00:28:04,933
[David] Real Madrid has always been
one of those clubs
530
00:28:05,016 --> 00:28:08,603
that is every kid's dream to play for.
531
00:28:08,687 --> 00:28:10,438
It's almost a fantasy.
532
00:28:12,524 --> 00:28:16,695
[commentator 2] A bullish Sir Alex
Ferguson has been intent on assuring us
533
00:28:16,778 --> 00:28:20,281
that Real are from the same planet
as his players.
534
00:28:21,324 --> 00:28:24,369
It excited me to see them
walk from the changing room,
535
00:28:24,452 --> 00:28:25,495
because I'm a fan.
536
00:28:25,578 --> 00:28:27,163
[music intensifies]
537
00:28:27,247 --> 00:28:29,249
[commentator 2]
The cast list is as follows…
538
00:28:30,166 --> 00:28:32,502
[David] So I was desperate
to get on the field.
539
00:28:35,171 --> 00:28:36,339
[Fisher] So, what happened?
540
00:28:36,423 --> 00:28:39,050
[commentator 2] Everywhere you look,
a headline waiting to be made.
541
00:28:39,134 --> 00:28:43,179
Before the game, the manager shouted,
"David, can I have a word?"
542
00:28:43,263 --> 00:28:46,349
They spoke for a little while,
and David left.
543
00:28:46,433 --> 00:28:48,560
He's like… [mimics scoffing]
I knew something was up.
544
00:28:49,561 --> 00:28:52,272
[commentator 1] Look at the Manchester
United 11, there's a shock.
545
00:28:52,355 --> 00:28:53,606
Beckham's not playing.
546
00:28:54,816 --> 00:28:56,401
[Fisher] Do you remember how you felt?
547
00:28:56,985 --> 00:28:57,944
Furious.
548
00:28:58,027 --> 00:29:00,280
[music continues]
549
00:29:03,742 --> 00:29:06,411
[Bobby] It's a big surprise,
almost disbelief.
550
00:29:10,957 --> 00:29:12,125
[Fisher] David's boiling.
551
00:29:12,876 --> 00:29:14,335
-Yeah. Yeah.
-[Fisher] Mad.
552
00:29:15,211 --> 00:29:17,756
[Ole] Because he's never
been left out before.
553
00:29:19,591 --> 00:29:22,552
[commentator 2] Ole Gunnar Solskjaer
preferred to David Beckham.
554
00:29:26,306 --> 00:29:30,435
I felt like I had a place to play
in that position.
555
00:29:30,518 --> 00:29:32,145
I was quicker than David, for sure.
556
00:29:32,228 --> 00:29:34,397
[commentator 2]
And this is The Theatre of Dreams.
557
00:29:35,732 --> 00:29:40,069
I don't think that any of you
will be dozing off during this one.
558
00:29:43,740 --> 00:29:44,699
[Carlos] Unfortunately,
559
00:29:45,658 --> 00:29:49,412
that gentleman called Ronaldo kill us.
560
00:29:50,705 --> 00:29:53,583
[commentator 2] Quickly onto Ronaldo,
who's stolen a march on Ferdinand.
561
00:29:53,666 --> 00:29:54,793
Ronaldo's shot!
562
00:29:56,628 --> 00:29:57,629
Heartbreaker.
563
00:30:00,131 --> 00:30:04,636
Ronaldo with a blow to the heart
of Manchester United's hopes.
564
00:30:04,719 --> 00:30:08,598
They are flash. Difficult to be the most
famous institution in world football
565
00:30:08,681 --> 00:30:09,974
and be humble about it.
566
00:30:10,058 --> 00:30:12,560
They belong in the big time
and they know it.
567
00:30:13,061 --> 00:30:14,687
[John] You wanted me to talk about Pérez?
568
00:30:14,771 --> 00:30:16,856
[Fisher] Yeah, yeah. That would be great.
569
00:30:18,817 --> 00:30:22,695
Okay. Florentino Pérez is a piece of work.
570
00:30:22,779 --> 00:30:24,364
[quiet, mysterious music playing]
571
00:30:24,447 --> 00:30:28,117
Florentino Pérez simultaneously
ran this big multinational company
572
00:30:28,993 --> 00:30:32,205
and he ran Real Madrid,
the biggest football club in the world.
573
00:30:32,956 --> 00:30:36,459
His construction business
was the prose of his life.
574
00:30:36,543 --> 00:30:38,378
Real Madrid was the poetry of his life.
575
00:30:39,796 --> 00:30:41,297
Just… I'll say hello.
576
00:30:41,381 --> 00:30:45,218
[both speaking Spanish]
577
00:30:45,301 --> 00:30:46,803
In the construction company,
578
00:30:46,886 --> 00:30:50,139
he would do everything
in a very measured way,
579
00:30:50,807 --> 00:30:53,726
and in Real Madrid,
he allowed himself to let his hair down.
580
00:30:54,811 --> 00:30:56,688
Like a wild kid.
581
00:30:58,398 --> 00:31:01,067
[both speaking Spanish]
582
00:31:03,903 --> 00:31:07,407
Now, he is bold to the point of shameless.
583
00:31:08,700 --> 00:31:13,705
[speaking Spanish]
Here is a club pass for Real Madrid.
584
00:31:14,873 --> 00:31:17,625
[John] And so his thinking
was incredibly simplistic.
585
00:31:18,877 --> 00:31:21,296
You know,
"We buy the best players, we'll win."
586
00:31:22,005 --> 00:31:25,008
And at the same time, to bring in money.
587
00:31:25,884 --> 00:31:27,176
[music stops]
588
00:31:27,260 --> 00:31:30,513
[both speaking Spanish]
589
00:31:30,597 --> 00:31:31,890
Hello. Florentino Pérez.
590
00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:36,269
[Fisher] You speak with me and I'll…
We'll do it in Español.
591
00:31:36,352 --> 00:31:38,646
Yes. I prefer to speak in Spanish
592
00:31:38,730 --> 00:31:40,732
because my English is very bad now.
593
00:31:40,815 --> 00:31:44,027
[John] He also has
a very keen interest in works of art.
594
00:31:44,110 --> 00:31:45,862
[Fisher] Great. Okay. So we start.
595
00:31:45,945 --> 00:31:48,156
[John] And so, what were
the most beautiful works of art
596
00:31:48,239 --> 00:31:50,533
in the football world at that time?
597
00:31:52,035 --> 00:31:54,078
[frantic tense music playing]
598
00:31:54,162 --> 00:31:55,038
Luís Figo.
599
00:31:55,622 --> 00:31:57,081
Elegance itself.
600
00:31:58,207 --> 00:31:59,792
We got him. He's up on the wall.
601
00:32:01,336 --> 00:32:03,171
Who else is there? Zidane.
602
00:32:05,006 --> 00:32:07,258
The Baryshnikov of football.
603
00:32:07,926 --> 00:32:09,260
Zidane's up on the wall.
604
00:32:10,929 --> 00:32:12,013
So, who's next?
605
00:32:12,931 --> 00:32:14,015
Ronaldo, the Brazilian.
606
00:32:16,935 --> 00:32:18,937
The greatest living goalscorer
of that time.
607
00:32:20,647 --> 00:32:24,192
The next work of art was Roberto Carlos,
a Brazilian. Fantastic.
608
00:32:26,152 --> 00:32:29,447
[Fisher] They were, arguably,
the greatest players in the world, right?
609
00:32:31,991 --> 00:32:35,370
They were not "arguably"...
the best players in the world.
610
00:32:35,453 --> 00:32:38,039
They were the best. There was no debate.
611
00:32:38,122 --> 00:32:40,792
[dramatic music playing]
612
00:32:44,587 --> 00:32:45,630
So, who was left?
613
00:32:46,631 --> 00:32:47,757
Michelangelo's David.
614
00:32:49,801 --> 00:32:51,302
I remember seeing him as he came on.
615
00:32:51,386 --> 00:32:54,097
[commentator 1] Nobody should
underestimate the pride of David Beckham
616
00:32:54,180 --> 00:32:56,975
and how it will have been hurt
by the selection tonight.
617
00:32:57,809 --> 00:32:59,560
[John] There seemed to be an extra
618
00:32:59,644 --> 00:33:01,020
fire in his belly.
619
00:33:01,104 --> 00:33:03,439
[dramatic musical finale]
620
00:33:03,523 --> 00:33:05,274
[commentator 1] It is Beckham. Oof!
621
00:33:05,358 --> 00:33:08,736
[crowd cheers]
622
00:33:08,820 --> 00:33:12,073
[commentator 2] That's one of the best
I think I've ever seen him score, that.
623
00:33:12,156 --> 00:33:13,324
That was phenomenal.
624
00:33:13,408 --> 00:33:17,453
Real Madrid and David Beckham
were, at that time, in 2003,
625
00:33:17,537 --> 00:33:19,288
the two biggest brands in football.
626
00:33:20,164 --> 00:33:23,126
Therefore, there was a certain
commercial, financial logic
627
00:33:23,209 --> 00:33:25,044
in a fusion of these two
628
00:33:25,128 --> 00:33:27,630
enormous global brands.
629
00:33:30,091 --> 00:33:33,052
[crowd cheers]
630
00:33:34,262 --> 00:33:36,931
[Florentino speaking Spanish]
I know exactly what my fans want,
631
00:33:37,015 --> 00:33:39,976
and I knew Beckham
was one of those players
632
00:33:40,059 --> 00:33:42,937
who were born to play at Real Madrid.
633
00:33:43,021 --> 00:33:46,024
So I did everything I could
634
00:33:46,107 --> 00:33:47,650
to get him.
635
00:33:48,818 --> 00:33:51,988
[commentator 1] Real Madrid, they have
broken the hearts of Manchester United.
636
00:33:52,071 --> 00:33:53,948
[crowd chanting]
637
00:33:54,032 --> 00:33:56,159
A mesmeric, memorable game
638
00:33:57,201 --> 00:33:59,078
full of stories.
639
00:34:00,913 --> 00:34:03,041
Zidane came up to me.
640
00:34:09,672 --> 00:34:12,425
And he doesn't speak
so much English, Zizou,
641
00:34:13,009 --> 00:34:15,678
and he doesn't really say too much, ever.
642
00:34:24,896 --> 00:34:27,482
He came up to me,
shook hands, and he went,
643
00:34:28,149 --> 00:34:29,567
"You come to Madrid?"
644
00:34:29,650 --> 00:34:31,903
[dramatic violin music playing]
645
00:34:34,113 --> 00:34:37,033
And I was like, "Did Zizou just say that?"
646
00:34:45,708 --> 00:34:47,126
I love that moment.
647
00:34:49,128 --> 00:34:51,047
It doesn't get any better than that.
648
00:34:52,799 --> 00:34:54,509
But I had no interest.
649
00:34:56,094 --> 00:34:57,970
Manchester United was my team.
650
00:34:58,679 --> 00:35:01,224
It was the only club
I ever wanted to play for.
651
00:35:02,809 --> 00:35:04,727
But I also loved Real Madrid.
652
00:35:04,811 --> 00:35:07,230
[crowd chanting]
653
00:35:09,982 --> 00:35:12,235
[commentator 1]
The bigger questions will begin.
654
00:35:14,487 --> 00:35:16,989
What does Sir Alex Ferguson do now?
655
00:35:20,368 --> 00:35:22,370
-[music stops]
-[tapping microphone]
656
00:35:25,581 --> 00:35:27,250
-[man 1] All right.
-[man 2] Okay, Nick.
657
00:35:27,333 --> 00:35:31,087
[man 3] I know your club, you never stand
still, you're always looking forward.
658
00:35:31,170 --> 00:35:34,340
Do you feel, this summer,
that you have got to evolve the side?
659
00:35:34,423 --> 00:35:37,844
It won't be anything drastic
or anything like that.
660
00:35:37,927 --> 00:35:40,138
No one will be leaving,
the players will be here,
661
00:35:40,221 --> 00:35:42,515
and I just need to fine-tune things.
662
00:35:43,558 --> 00:35:44,809
[man 3] Sir Alex, thanks.
663
00:35:49,981 --> 00:35:51,566
[Carlos] Alex Ferguson,
664
00:35:52,191 --> 00:35:53,484
he knocked the door,
665
00:35:54,152 --> 00:35:56,904
come and sit in front of me,
and he said, "Done."
666
00:35:58,030 --> 00:35:59,282
"David is leaving us."
667
00:36:01,909 --> 00:36:05,329
It was just like that. Ice. "It's done."
668
00:36:05,413 --> 00:36:09,417
And he started to talk
about, uh… another thing.
669
00:36:14,255 --> 00:36:16,215
[man 1 speaking Spanish]
I am pleased to announce
670
00:36:17,175 --> 00:36:20,094
that Manchester United have agreed
671
00:36:21,304 --> 00:36:23,764
to a deal
672
00:36:23,848 --> 00:36:26,767
that will make David Beckham a player
673
00:36:26,851 --> 00:36:28,561
for Barcelona FC.
674
00:36:31,063 --> 00:36:31,898
"What?"
675
00:36:32,648 --> 00:36:35,276
Come on! Come and get your Standard!
676
00:36:35,359 --> 00:36:37,904
United say yeah for bid to Becks!
677
00:36:37,987 --> 00:36:39,155
[David] How is that possible?
678
00:36:39,238 --> 00:36:41,490
-You heard about Beckham, then?
-Yes.
679
00:36:42,158 --> 00:36:43,868
-I can't believe it. I'm devastated.
-I know.
680
00:36:43,951 --> 00:36:47,371
[radio caller]
It's the worst bit, the worst,
681
00:36:47,455 --> 00:36:50,458
very worst bit of management
I've ever seen.
682
00:36:50,541 --> 00:36:52,293
[slow, ominous music playing]
683
00:36:52,376 --> 00:36:53,711
[David] I called the club.
684
00:36:54,754 --> 00:36:56,964
And I said, "Can I speak to the boss?"
685
00:36:58,007 --> 00:37:00,426
And they said,
"No. He doesn't want to talk to you."
686
00:37:00,509 --> 00:37:03,763
And I said,
"Please just let me speak to the boss."
687
00:37:03,846 --> 00:37:07,475
"I need to know
that this is really what he wants."
688
00:37:09,602 --> 00:37:11,354
I'd have pleaded to not go.
689
00:37:11,437 --> 00:37:13,022
[Fisher] But why didn't you?
690
00:37:13,105 --> 00:37:15,858
Because I couldn't get in contact
with the boss.
691
00:37:16,859 --> 00:37:20,196
I think the relationship
was at a stalemate anyway.
692
00:37:20,279 --> 00:37:23,407
There was not going to be any point
in me saying to David,
693
00:37:23,491 --> 00:37:26,494
you know, "I'm selling you,"
and then he would say, "Why?"
694
00:37:26,577 --> 00:37:28,204
[contemplative music playing]
695
00:37:28,287 --> 00:37:32,458
I don't think I'd have changed his mind--
Well, I don't know. I don't know.
696
00:37:33,167 --> 00:37:35,544
The decision that was made was better.
697
00:37:35,628 --> 00:37:38,714
Uh, he went, you know…
Or he didn't need to go.
698
00:37:38,798 --> 00:37:42,802
He could have stayed if he wanted,
but I think he knew it was the right time.
699
00:37:43,386 --> 00:37:46,055
But did I ever want to leave Man United?
Of course not.
700
00:37:46,639 --> 00:37:47,556
Never.
701
00:37:52,228 --> 00:37:53,646
It was my home.
702
00:37:54,730 --> 00:37:57,942
My relationship with the boss
was always special.
703
00:38:00,278 --> 00:38:03,990
Yeah, we had our moments,
but I still loved him.
704
00:38:04,073 --> 00:38:07,702
You're never going to be in love
with players all your life. Never.
705
00:38:07,785 --> 00:38:09,912
It's never going to be that way, because
706
00:38:10,997 --> 00:38:15,459
uh, you're picking a player because
of his performance on the football field.
707
00:38:15,543 --> 00:38:19,255
You know, not because of
your relationship with him off the field.
708
00:38:21,674 --> 00:38:23,259
[David] I've never said this, but
709
00:38:23,968 --> 00:38:25,761
I'm glad I didn't speak to him,
710
00:38:26,470 --> 00:38:28,639
because I think
it would've broken my heart.
711
00:38:29,682 --> 00:38:31,183
But that was it for me.
712
00:38:32,143 --> 00:38:33,644
That was it. That was, um…
713
00:38:35,229 --> 00:38:38,899
That was it for--
That was it at United, really.
714
00:38:43,446 --> 00:38:44,447
That was it.
715
00:38:54,623 --> 00:38:55,958
[David Gardner] Yeah, he was
716
00:38:56,876 --> 00:38:58,627
like, literally heart-broke,
717
00:38:58,711 --> 00:39:01,339
like, beyond, like… Yeah.
718
00:39:02,798 --> 00:39:04,675
Since the age of 15, you know,
719
00:39:05,676 --> 00:39:07,428
all he knew was Manchester United.
720
00:39:11,599 --> 00:39:13,684
You know?
And then, all of a sudden, it's like…
721
00:39:15,644 --> 00:39:17,855
And he's probably
never really got over it.
722
00:39:20,483 --> 00:39:22,360
He's probably never really got over it.
723
00:39:25,863 --> 00:39:27,156
[Gary] We were brothers.
724
00:39:28,866 --> 00:39:29,909
It was a family.
725
00:39:32,203 --> 00:39:33,704
And you're never gonna leave.
726
00:39:34,330 --> 00:39:36,374
And me and him
were down that right-hand side.
727
00:39:36,457 --> 00:39:38,459
[contemplative music continues]
728
00:39:41,087 --> 00:39:43,881
Because we're all thinking
we'll play for United forever.
729
00:39:48,636 --> 00:39:50,346
[David] I had to make a decision.
730
00:39:53,766 --> 00:39:56,018
[music stops]
731
00:39:56,102 --> 00:39:58,687
So I said, "If you want me to leave,
732
00:39:59,605 --> 00:40:02,274
and I don't want to leave,
but if you want me to leave…"
733
00:40:04,193 --> 00:40:07,863
"I want to move to… I want to move
to the club that I want to move to."
734
00:40:07,947 --> 00:40:10,866
"If I'm being pushed out of Man United,
this is where I wanna go."
735
00:40:10,950 --> 00:40:13,536
[romantic Latin guitar music playing]
736
00:40:16,372 --> 00:40:17,248
Perfect.
737
00:40:17,331 --> 00:40:19,208
[David] I remember
being stood in my kitchen.
738
00:40:19,291 --> 00:40:20,793
[Florentino clears throat]
739
00:40:20,876 --> 00:40:23,754
[David] The phone rings.
Florentino comes on.
740
00:40:23,838 --> 00:40:26,966
He said, "David, would you like
to play for Real Madrid?"
741
00:40:27,049 --> 00:40:27,967
"Yes."
742
00:40:28,676 --> 00:40:30,428
"No problem. Done."
743
00:40:30,511 --> 00:40:35,307
[speaking Spanish] It may sound bad,
but with all respect to Manchester United,
744
00:40:35,391 --> 00:40:39,728
like I said before,
he was simply born to play at Real Madrid.
745
00:40:41,647 --> 00:40:44,400
[Fisher] Okay, so, you tell Victoria
you're going to Madrid,
746
00:40:44,483 --> 00:40:45,693
right, at that point?
747
00:40:45,776 --> 00:40:47,027
What does she say?
748
00:40:47,111 --> 00:40:48,195
[sighs]
749
00:40:48,279 --> 00:40:51,615
"What do you mean, 'Going to Spain'?"
"We're going to Spain." "When?"
750
00:40:51,699 --> 00:40:53,826
"Uh, in about 12 hours."
751
00:40:53,909 --> 00:40:56,829
I was like, "What do you mean?
We don't have anywhere to live."
752
00:40:56,912 --> 00:41:00,416
"We don't have schools for the children.
What-- What do you mean?"
753
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:03,961
But then the reality is we moved to Spain.
754
00:41:04,044 --> 00:41:05,546
-[snaps fingers]
-Like that.
755
00:41:05,629 --> 00:41:08,090
[music plays more dramatically]
756
00:41:13,888 --> 00:41:16,557
[reporter speaking Spanish]
David Beckham arrived at Zarzuela Clinic
757
00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:20,686
taking his final step
to becoming a Real Madrid player.
758
00:41:21,896 --> 00:41:26,233
[man speaking Spanish]
In our opinion, he's in perfect condition.
759
00:41:28,486 --> 00:41:32,072
[speaking Spanish] He also seems like
he's got his feet on the ground.
760
00:41:34,492 --> 00:41:36,160
[music fades out]
761
00:41:36,327 --> 00:41:39,205
[David] I remember being with
the president, and his office looked out
762
00:41:39,288 --> 00:41:42,041
over these tower blocks, and he was like,
763
00:41:42,124 --> 00:41:44,001
"Those are the Galácticos."
764
00:41:44,084 --> 00:41:48,047
"You've got Figo, you've got Ronaldo,
you've got Zidane."
765
00:41:48,631 --> 00:41:51,425
He said, "Look, that one's yours."
And I was like,
766
00:41:51,509 --> 00:41:53,260
"Okay." I liked that.
767
00:41:55,095 --> 00:41:57,640
[reporter speaking Spanish]
Did Madrid sign him for this?
768
00:41:57,723 --> 00:41:58,599
Or for this?
769
00:41:59,308 --> 00:42:02,311
[David] People already had
a preconception of me.
770
00:42:02,394 --> 00:42:06,106
You know, I'm married to a Spice Girl.
You know, all the circus around.
771
00:42:07,441 --> 00:42:10,903
So I wanted to go in so low-key, just me.
772
00:42:10,986 --> 00:42:12,613
[majestic brass music playing]
773
00:42:12,696 --> 00:42:17,117
[people chatter in Spanish]
774
00:42:19,286 --> 00:42:22,414
[John] The day that David Beckham
signed for Real Madrid
775
00:42:22,498 --> 00:42:24,792
is a day unmatched…
776
00:42:24,875 --> 00:42:27,545
[sirens blaring]
777
00:42:27,628 --> 00:42:30,631
…in the signing of any players anywhere
778
00:42:31,924 --> 00:42:32,841
in history.
779
00:42:39,056 --> 00:42:43,310
He arrives in the city as if he were
the President of the United States.
780
00:42:43,394 --> 00:42:45,145
[sirens blaring]
781
00:42:59,910 --> 00:43:01,704
[Fisher] This was crazy, right?
782
00:43:01,787 --> 00:43:02,955
Yeah.
783
00:43:14,425 --> 00:43:16,802
[John] This was
the biggest ticket in town.
784
00:43:16,885 --> 00:43:20,222
Anybody who was anybody in Spain
785
00:43:20,306 --> 00:43:21,515
wanted to be invited.
786
00:43:21,599 --> 00:43:23,642
[music fades out]
787
00:43:23,726 --> 00:43:24,893
The politicians,
788
00:43:26,061 --> 00:43:28,856
the judges, all the top businessmen,
789
00:43:30,107 --> 00:43:32,985
all brought their good lady wives along
because otherwise,
790
00:43:33,068 --> 00:43:35,696
they'd have had hell in their marriages
the rest of their lives
791
00:43:35,779 --> 00:43:37,865
if they hadn't brought them
for the big event.
792
00:43:37,948 --> 00:43:40,492
[crowd applauds]
793
00:43:56,467 --> 00:43:58,177
[Florentino speaking Spanish]
Good morning.
794
00:43:58,927 --> 00:44:02,598
David Beckham is here
because we believe in him as a footballer.
795
00:44:02,681 --> 00:44:05,517
He is a man who is a symbol of our era,
796
00:44:05,601 --> 00:44:08,145
a symbol of post-modernity.
797
00:44:09,063 --> 00:44:13,567
David, welcome
to the league of dreams. Thank you.
798
00:44:13,651 --> 00:44:15,903
[crowd applauds]
799
00:44:19,698 --> 00:44:22,201
Gracias, ladies and gentlemen.
800
00:44:23,744 --> 00:44:26,121
I have always loved football.
801
00:44:26,747 --> 00:44:28,582
[interpreter speaks Spanish]
802
00:44:28,666 --> 00:44:30,793
Of course, I love my family.
803
00:44:30,876 --> 00:44:32,503
[interpreter speaks Spanish]
804
00:44:34,296 --> 00:44:36,256
But football is everything to me.
805
00:44:36,340 --> 00:44:38,342
[interpreter speaks Spanish]
806
00:44:38,425 --> 00:44:40,761
[dramatic classical music playing]
807
00:44:40,844 --> 00:44:42,930
[speaks Spanish]
808
00:44:43,639 --> 00:44:45,599
[crowd applauds]
809
00:44:50,562 --> 00:44:52,398
[David] I remember turning
around to Victoria.
810
00:44:52,481 --> 00:44:55,859
And I'm not sure
how happy Victoria was about it.
811
00:44:58,779 --> 00:45:00,531
But I said to her,
812
00:45:00,614 --> 00:45:04,827
"We have to look at this
like this is forever."
813
00:45:06,286 --> 00:45:07,579
Less than ideal.
814
00:45:07,663 --> 00:45:10,082
[applause continues]
815
00:45:11,500 --> 00:45:14,169
[crowd cheering]
816
00:45:19,383 --> 00:45:21,719
[speaking Spanish]
817
00:45:22,344 --> 00:45:24,638
Welcome to Madrid, David Beckham.
818
00:45:24,722 --> 00:45:26,515
[John] When I did the interview with him,
819
00:45:26,598 --> 00:45:29,643
he arrived barefooted.
I don't know what that was about.
820
00:45:29,727 --> 00:45:33,230
-Your Spanish, are you gonna work at it?
-Definitely.
821
00:45:33,313 --> 00:45:36,191
It's something that
I'm trying to learn already.
822
00:45:36,275 --> 00:45:37,943
Having interviewed famous people,
823
00:45:38,026 --> 00:45:40,529
you see so many of them
are actually complete pricks.
824
00:45:40,612 --> 00:45:44,783
Your kids, Brooklyn in particular,
he'll be bilingual before you know it.
825
00:45:44,867 --> 00:45:47,244
He can actually say "hola" and "adiós."
826
00:45:48,328 --> 00:45:51,373
[John] There was a curious
contrast between
827
00:45:51,457 --> 00:45:54,585
how big and famous David Beckham was,
828
00:45:54,668 --> 00:45:57,296
and how awkward he was talking in public.
829
00:45:57,379 --> 00:46:00,174
-[crowd cheering]
-[dramatic classical music continues]
830
00:46:01,467 --> 00:46:04,595
[David] It's an amazing experience
that I'm stepping into now.
831
00:46:06,597 --> 00:46:09,475
It's going to be a great life
for me over here and my family.
832
00:46:09,558 --> 00:46:12,895
And, uh, my family's definitely
going to enjoy living here.
833
00:46:14,062 --> 00:46:15,939
[music stops]
834
00:46:16,023 --> 00:46:17,191
[person] David!
835
00:46:17,274 --> 00:46:20,277
[David] I remember,
before my first training session…
836
00:46:22,780 --> 00:46:24,490
I'm there before everyone.
837
00:46:25,908 --> 00:46:27,910
So I was in the changing room on my own.
838
00:46:31,955 --> 00:46:33,582
Sat there, just waiting.
839
00:46:33,665 --> 00:46:36,502
Ner… Like, sweating.
840
00:46:36,585 --> 00:46:38,295
I was so nervous.
841
00:46:39,379 --> 00:46:40,464
And…
842
00:46:40,547 --> 00:46:41,965
[Latin guitar music playing]
843
00:46:42,049 --> 00:46:43,425
…Figo walks in.
844
00:46:43,509 --> 00:46:46,094
-Good afternoon.
-[Fisher] Good afternoon, Luís. Here.
845
00:46:46,178 --> 00:46:47,888
[David] Shakes my hand. "Welcome."
846
00:46:47,971 --> 00:46:48,847
[Fisher] Roberto.
847
00:46:48,931 --> 00:46:51,099
[David] Roberto walks in, shakes my hand.
848
00:46:51,183 --> 00:46:53,227
-¿Qué tal? Okay?
-[Fisher] Muy bien. How are you?
849
00:46:53,894 --> 00:46:55,187
[David] Ronaldo walks in.
850
00:46:55,270 --> 00:46:56,396
[speaks Spanish]
851
00:46:56,480 --> 00:46:58,607
I don't think I've ever been as nervous.
852
00:46:58,690 --> 00:46:59,983
[Fisher] Did you throw up?
853
00:47:00,067 --> 00:47:02,736
No, I didn't-- I didn't throw up, but…
854
00:47:02,820 --> 00:47:05,280
[Latin guitar music continues]
855
00:47:07,991 --> 00:47:10,702
[Roberto speaking Spanish]
We see this gorgeous guy.
856
00:47:10,786 --> 00:47:14,122
A blond guy who is joining our team.
857
00:47:14,832 --> 00:47:16,625
[speaking English] A beautiful guy.
858
00:47:18,001 --> 00:47:23,340
[Ronaldo speaking Spanish]
Everyone wanted to have his haircut.
859
00:47:23,423 --> 00:47:27,678
But with my curly hair
860
00:47:27,761 --> 00:47:34,142
it was more difficult for me
to copy his hairstyle.
861
00:47:34,768 --> 00:47:37,396
[David] I remember,
we played this small-sided game.
862
00:47:37,479 --> 00:47:39,439
Ronaldo was about to score,
863
00:47:39,523 --> 00:47:41,483
so I've slid,
864
00:47:41,567 --> 00:47:42,609
and as I've slid,
865
00:47:42,693 --> 00:47:46,405
he just put his foot on the ball
and he watched me go past, like that.
866
00:47:49,366 --> 00:47:52,286
[crowd gasps and laughs]
867
00:47:52,369 --> 00:47:55,455
"Okay, this is-- this is the level
that I have to get to."
868
00:47:55,539 --> 00:47:56,665
[music continues]
869
00:47:56,748 --> 00:47:59,293
Nice place for an interview.
It's really nice.
870
00:48:01,879 --> 00:48:03,964
But, of course, all the guys talking.
871
00:48:04,047 --> 00:48:05,966
[blows air] "What you think?"
872
00:48:06,049 --> 00:48:09,052
[blows air] "I don't know,
to be honest. Really unpredictable."
873
00:48:09,136 --> 00:48:11,805
"I don't know if this guy
is gonna-- is gonna suit to us."
874
00:48:13,557 --> 00:48:15,684
All the things around him, you know,
875
00:48:16,435 --> 00:48:17,394
the wife,
876
00:48:18,729 --> 00:48:20,606
the press, you know, talking about him.
877
00:48:22,524 --> 00:48:25,444
That brings bad things
into the dressing room.
878
00:48:25,527 --> 00:48:28,697
The main thing is where is he gonna play?
Because Figo's on the right.
879
00:48:28,780 --> 00:48:30,198
[music stops]
880
00:48:32,200 --> 00:48:36,580
And Figo is one of the best right-mids,
you know, in the world, by far.
881
00:48:39,124 --> 00:48:43,712
When, uh, it was coming out
that probably David came,
882
00:48:43,795 --> 00:48:48,800
everyone started to talk. "Now he comes
to play in your position. Blah-blah-blah."
883
00:48:48,884 --> 00:48:51,511
"It will be a fight, competition between
884
00:48:51,595 --> 00:48:54,348
Luís and David for the position.
Blah-blah-blah."
885
00:48:55,140 --> 00:48:56,683
I was not scared at all.
886
00:48:59,353 --> 00:49:01,688
[David] Figo was in the position
where I played.
887
00:49:02,814 --> 00:49:05,359
I didn't want to turn around
to Figo and say,
888
00:49:06,318 --> 00:49:07,235
"I'm here now."
889
00:49:07,319 --> 00:49:08,987
"Where are you going to play?"
890
00:49:09,071 --> 00:49:10,489
You know, this is Figo.
891
00:49:12,658 --> 00:49:16,995
[Luís] I think, in that time,
it was not really what the team needs.
892
00:49:20,290 --> 00:49:22,960
[Fisher] Why do you think
Pérez brought him in though?
893
00:49:23,460 --> 00:49:25,921
I don't know.
You have to ask the president.
894
00:49:26,004 --> 00:49:29,633
[speaking Spanish]
We were able to triple our revenue.
895
00:49:29,716 --> 00:49:31,385
[jazzy big band music playing]
896
00:49:31,468 --> 00:49:34,972
[reporter] Beckham will be in the Far East
with his new club, Real Madrid,
897
00:49:35,055 --> 00:49:37,599
who no doubt will be
cashing in on their new signing.
898
00:49:37,683 --> 00:49:41,645
They get half the profits
of taking the Beckham brand on the road.
899
00:49:42,771 --> 00:49:46,191
One of the most lucrative
promotional trips ever.
900
00:49:51,321 --> 00:49:53,448
[David] I'd been on tours with United.
901
00:49:55,909 --> 00:49:57,577
This was a whole different level.
902
00:49:57,661 --> 00:50:00,330
[people screaming]
903
00:50:00,414 --> 00:50:02,416
[jazzy big band music continues]
904
00:50:08,380 --> 00:50:11,758
I remember, we arrived at this hotel,
and there were 10,000 people
905
00:50:11,842 --> 00:50:13,093
at 4:00 a.m.
906
00:50:13,176 --> 00:50:15,262
[cheering]
907
00:50:19,224 --> 00:50:21,226
So, that was happening because of Beckham.
908
00:50:21,309 --> 00:50:23,311
[indistinct chatter]
909
00:50:24,312 --> 00:50:26,440
[Míchel] He brought
that kind of craziness.
910
00:50:26,523 --> 00:50:29,401
[jazzy big band music continues]
911
00:50:29,484 --> 00:50:33,905
[speaking Spanish] It was more like
a rock band than a football team.
912
00:50:35,157 --> 00:50:37,492
[people screaming]
913
00:50:39,995 --> 00:50:42,456
[Ronaldo speaking Spanish]
This transcended football.
914
00:50:42,539 --> 00:50:44,958
[indistinct chatter]
915
00:50:45,834 --> 00:50:48,712
We were no longer talking
only about football lovers.
916
00:50:49,671 --> 00:50:51,882
Women supporters.
917
00:50:52,632 --> 00:50:54,551
We love Beckham!
918
00:50:54,634 --> 00:51:00,015
[speaking Spanish] On the advertising
billboards, there were 40 Beckham adverts
919
00:51:00,098 --> 00:51:01,016
and only one of me.
920
00:51:03,060 --> 00:51:05,645
[Míchel] It is the first time
that we go worldwide.
921
00:51:07,105 --> 00:51:08,065
Because of one player.
922
00:51:08,148 --> 00:51:10,901
[people cheering]
923
00:51:10,984 --> 00:51:14,696
We were so comfortable
in our houses in Spain.
924
00:51:17,032 --> 00:51:20,410
Now, suddenly,
we were 30 days out of our families.
925
00:51:20,494 --> 00:51:23,538
So, for us,
it was a pain in the… [chuckling]
926
00:51:24,790 --> 00:51:26,500
[indistinct chatter]
927
00:51:26,583 --> 00:51:27,542
Hey, you're the man.
928
00:51:27,626 --> 00:51:30,670
We said, "David,
we are working double because of you."
929
00:51:30,754 --> 00:51:32,714
[jazzy big band music continues]
930
00:51:32,798 --> 00:51:35,258
[people shouting]
931
00:51:41,932 --> 00:51:44,351
Hey! Hey, you sit down! Sit down!
932
00:51:47,479 --> 00:51:49,981
[marching band music playing]
933
00:51:52,400 --> 00:51:55,612
[reporter speaks Spanish] Real Madrid are
in possession of this publicity machine.
934
00:51:55,695 --> 00:51:59,741
Now Beckham is seen
as a figure of worship in Asia.
935
00:51:59,825 --> 00:52:02,119
[jazzy big band music continues]
936
00:52:02,202 --> 00:52:04,371
[indistinct chatter over speaker]
937
00:52:06,039 --> 00:52:07,791
[John] The Sun newspaper
938
00:52:07,874 --> 00:52:11,128
sent reporters all over the world
to see if they could find someone
939
00:52:11,211 --> 00:52:12,963
who had not heard of David Beckham.
940
00:52:13,046 --> 00:52:16,007
Beckham! Beckham!
941
00:52:16,091 --> 00:52:18,093
[people screaming]
942
00:52:22,597 --> 00:52:25,976
Eventually, they found a person,
or they said they did.
943
00:52:31,481 --> 00:52:34,317
And the one man in the world
who does not know David Beckham?
944
00:52:34,401 --> 00:52:36,278
A shepherd in Chad.
945
00:52:36,361 --> 00:52:37,571
[music stops]
946
00:52:38,572 --> 00:52:42,576
I, on the other hand, more often than not,
I was always the villain.
947
00:52:42,659 --> 00:52:44,953
We have to talk about Spain
because we're here.
948
00:52:45,036 --> 00:52:46,997
-Are you happy here?
-I am.
949
00:52:47,080 --> 00:52:48,874
It's great. David absolutely loves it.
950
00:52:48,957 --> 00:52:50,709
David even answers the phone, "¿Aló?."
951
00:52:50,792 --> 00:52:51,626
So I sat there…
952
00:52:51,710 --> 00:52:55,672
I remember doing an interview once
for Spanish Vogue. I did the cover.
953
00:52:55,755 --> 00:52:58,800
And in the interview,
they reported that I hate Spain,
954
00:52:58,884 --> 00:53:00,886
"Because Spain smells of garlic."
955
00:53:01,386 --> 00:53:02,679
I didn't say that.
956
00:53:02,762 --> 00:53:04,556
[moody classical music playing]
957
00:53:04,639 --> 00:53:07,475
[reporter 1 speaking Spanish]
She says Spain smells like garlic.
958
00:53:08,685 --> 00:53:10,729
[John] Now, if you want to offend
959
00:53:11,771 --> 00:53:12,647
the Spanish,
960
00:53:13,690 --> 00:53:16,067
question the quality of their food.
961
00:53:16,902 --> 00:53:18,778
This was a grievous offense.
962
00:53:19,529 --> 00:53:21,656
[reporter 2 speaking Spanish]
Victoria sent shock waves
963
00:53:21,740 --> 00:53:24,910
through Madrid last night
on her first social appearance in Spain.
964
00:53:25,493 --> 00:53:28,622
[reporter 3 speaking Spanish] She ordered
vegetables and fish, but ate almonds
965
00:53:28,705 --> 00:53:29,998
and drank some water.
966
00:53:30,874 --> 00:53:33,501
[David] In a lot of the reports, it was,
967
00:53:34,169 --> 00:53:35,462
"Oh, she hates Spain."
968
00:53:35,545 --> 00:53:36,671
"Oh, she hates Madrid."
969
00:53:37,505 --> 00:53:40,508
[reporter 3] She forced a smile
and didn't speak to the press.
970
00:53:42,177 --> 00:53:44,137
It was never about Spain.
971
00:53:44,221 --> 00:53:46,389
We had a family
we had to really think about.
972
00:53:47,307 --> 00:53:49,851
I had two children, Brooklyn and Romeo.
973
00:53:49,935 --> 00:53:50,852
Didn't she?
974
00:53:50,936 --> 00:53:53,605
And this is what nobody
seemed to take into consideration
975
00:53:53,688 --> 00:53:57,400
when I was getting criticized for not
being in Spain right from the beginning.
976
00:53:57,484 --> 00:53:58,902
A kid has to go to school.
977
00:53:58,985 --> 00:54:02,489
I knew I couldn't move to Spain
until I had a school for Brooklyn.
978
00:54:02,572 --> 00:54:04,574
-Yeah, have you cleaned your teeth?
-What?
979
00:54:04,658 --> 00:54:07,035
[Victoria] I was doing Monday
to Friday in London,
980
00:54:07,869 --> 00:54:11,373
-and then jumping on a plane to Spain.
-[camera shutters clicking]
981
00:54:12,123 --> 00:54:16,711
[reporter 2] And on top of that, we find
her in line at a hamburger restaurant.
982
00:54:16,795 --> 00:54:21,383
But everything I did was fabricated,
taken out of context.
983
00:54:21,466 --> 00:54:24,010
[people shouting]
984
00:54:24,094 --> 00:54:25,845
[reporter 2]
They say she longs for London,
985
00:54:25,929 --> 00:54:28,515
that here in Madrid she doesn't find
the glamour she's used to.
986
00:54:30,225 --> 00:54:32,435
[moody classical music stops]
987
00:54:32,519 --> 00:54:35,105
But it was never about Spain.
988
00:54:38,775 --> 00:54:41,611
[man speaking Spanish] A new Real Madrid
manager was unveiled today
989
00:54:41,695 --> 00:54:43,238
at the Bernabéu Stadium.
990
00:54:43,321 --> 00:54:46,574
[Carlos speaking Spanish]
I'd like to express my gratitude
991
00:54:48,326 --> 00:54:53,456
for this opportunity to manage and coach
992
00:54:53,540 --> 00:54:54,666
Real Madrid.
993
00:54:55,458 --> 00:54:59,004
When the invitation
of Real Madrid come to me,
994
00:54:59,838 --> 00:55:04,134
was something amazing,
because I was not even dreaming
995
00:55:04,217 --> 00:55:06,344
that Real Madrid was knocking my door.
996
00:55:06,428 --> 00:55:12,267
It's one of the best clubs in the world.
997
00:55:12,350 --> 00:55:14,686
I was, uh… I was shocked.
998
00:55:15,478 --> 00:55:17,897
I was shocked when I heard.
999
00:55:24,154 --> 00:55:26,698
Now I start my Real Madrid career knowing
1000
00:55:26,781 --> 00:55:30,910
that I'm playing for a manager
that didn't want me in my last team.
1001
00:55:30,994 --> 00:55:33,330
[contemplative classical music playing]
1002
00:55:42,922 --> 00:55:44,883
[presenter speaking Spanish]
Good afternoon.
1003
00:55:44,966 --> 00:55:46,801
It's a special day for David Beckham.
1004
00:55:46,885 --> 00:55:50,555
David Beckham makes his debut
1005
00:55:50,638 --> 00:55:52,390
in a Real Madrid shirt.
1006
00:55:55,185 --> 00:55:57,645
-[man] Beckham! Beckham!
-[people shouting]
1007
00:55:57,729 --> 00:55:59,356
[David] So, that first game,
1008
00:56:00,106 --> 00:56:02,067
you know, it was a different pressure.
1009
00:56:11,493 --> 00:56:13,745
I had that sick feeling in my stomach.
1010
00:56:19,542 --> 00:56:21,544
[Míchel] All the fans, crazy, you know?
1011
00:56:23,588 --> 00:56:26,800
For them, Real Madrid is
1012
00:56:26,883 --> 00:56:30,595
one of the most important things
in their life. It's like a religion.
1013
00:56:30,678 --> 00:56:33,223
[contemplative classical music continues]
1014
00:56:35,308 --> 00:56:37,769
[Roberto speaking Spanish]
Real Madrid are obliged to win.
1015
00:56:38,353 --> 00:56:42,607
There's a pressure to win, which is crazy.
1016
00:56:45,819 --> 00:56:49,364
[Ronaldo speaking Spanish]
In the moments leading up to the match,
1017
00:56:51,241 --> 00:56:53,451
you try not to get nervous…
1018
00:56:56,246 --> 00:56:59,165
or unsure of yourself.
1019
00:57:05,088 --> 00:57:06,798
[David] You want to be confident,
1020
00:57:08,299 --> 00:57:11,219
but everything plays with your mind.
1021
00:57:14,556 --> 00:57:17,308
I was thinking, "Shit."
1022
00:57:17,392 --> 00:57:19,811
[contemplative classical music continues]
1023
00:57:20,395 --> 00:57:23,690
I'm playing with
all of these great players.
1024
00:57:23,773 --> 00:57:26,359
[commentator 1]
They look like a fantasy league team.
1025
00:57:27,569 --> 00:57:31,030
[commentator 2] But everybody's looking
to see what David Beckham can do.
1026
00:57:32,198 --> 00:57:33,867
[David] Am I gonna be good enough?
1027
00:57:36,035 --> 00:57:39,414
That's the moment where you'll say,
"Okay, now I'm gonna judge you."
1028
00:57:39,497 --> 00:57:40,582
"I'm gonna see you."
1029
00:57:40,665 --> 00:57:42,917
"I'm gonna see
the way you are and everything."
1030
00:57:48,423 --> 00:57:49,716
[blows whistle]
1031
00:57:49,799 --> 00:57:50,758
[music stops]
1032
00:57:50,842 --> 00:57:54,137
[commentator 1] The football papers here
carried up to eight pages of stories
1033
00:57:54,220 --> 00:57:56,931
about that man, David Beckham.
1034
00:57:57,474 --> 00:57:59,559
Where is he going to fit into this team?
1035
00:58:00,101 --> 00:58:01,728
[Fisher] What about your position?
1036
00:58:03,271 --> 00:58:05,398
[David] I had no idea
where I was going to play.
1037
00:58:05,482 --> 00:58:07,734
[slow, suspenseful music playing]
1038
00:58:09,194 --> 00:58:11,196
[Carlos] Two players
for the same position.
1039
00:58:12,906 --> 00:58:13,990
You have a problem.
1040
00:58:17,994 --> 00:58:21,122
Queiroz put him to play more behind me,
so he have to…
1041
00:58:21,998 --> 00:58:23,708
He have to run more for me.
1042
00:58:24,751 --> 00:58:27,253
[chuckling]
1043
00:58:27,337 --> 00:58:28,838
[slow, dramatic music playing]
1044
00:58:28,922 --> 00:58:30,131
[commentator 1] Figo.
1045
00:58:32,717 --> 00:58:33,927
There's David Beckham.
1046
00:58:34,010 --> 00:58:36,846
[John] Beckham had to do something
he'd never done before,
1047
00:58:36,930 --> 00:58:40,058
for England or Manchester United,
to sort of play a bit further back.
1048
00:58:40,141 --> 00:58:42,227
[commentator 2] That usually means danger.
1049
00:58:42,310 --> 00:58:43,728
[commentator 1] David Beckham.
1050
00:58:45,188 --> 00:58:46,231
Well, look,
1051
00:58:46,981 --> 00:58:48,983
I know we're making a film
about David Beckham
1052
00:58:49,067 --> 00:58:50,860
and singing his praises, but, I mean…
1053
00:58:50,944 --> 00:58:52,445
[commentator 1] David Beckham.
1054
00:58:55,365 --> 00:58:56,783
…he couldn't do it.
1055
00:58:57,450 --> 00:58:59,869
[commentator 1]
He's given it back to Eto'o!
1056
00:58:59,953 --> 00:59:01,496
Yes!
1057
00:59:02,372 --> 00:59:03,873
Samuel Eto'o.
1058
00:59:04,499 --> 00:59:07,627
And Mallorca are in front,
and they deserve it.
1059
00:59:07,710 --> 00:59:09,003
[commentator 2] Absolutely.
1060
00:59:09,087 --> 00:59:10,547
[shouting in Spanish]
1061
00:59:10,630 --> 00:59:13,466
[commentator 1] David Beckham,
he's been neither here nor there.
1062
00:59:14,217 --> 00:59:15,718
Real Madrid rattled.
1063
00:59:16,386 --> 00:59:19,597
Time for a double change.
1064
00:59:19,681 --> 00:59:22,100
And it's, uh, David Beckham.
1065
00:59:23,726 --> 00:59:25,728
He is gonna come off.
1066
00:59:26,479 --> 00:59:29,065
[commentator 2] It's a strange one,
so early in the second half.
1067
00:59:29,148 --> 00:59:30,984
Obviously, the coach, Carlos Queiroz,
1068
00:59:31,067 --> 00:59:33,444
feels that they need
to do something about it now.
1069
00:59:33,528 --> 00:59:35,321
It takes time to settle in.
1070
00:59:35,405 --> 00:59:36,823
Rome was not built in a day.
1071
00:59:37,448 --> 00:59:39,158
[commentator 1] And it's all over,
1072
00:59:39,242 --> 00:59:41,202
and Mallorca triumph.
1073
00:59:41,286 --> 00:59:43,621
[melancholic music playing]
1074
00:59:50,503 --> 00:59:51,671
[music fades out]
1075
00:59:55,466 --> 00:59:57,760
[Spanish chatter]
1076
00:59:59,762 --> 01:00:02,724
David, can you sign an autograph
for my boyfriend?
1077
01:00:03,516 --> 01:00:05,435
[David] When I played
for Manchester United,
1078
01:00:05,518 --> 01:00:08,771
even when I lost games,
even when I wasn't playing well…
1079
01:00:12,025 --> 01:00:14,777
I knew that I was going home
to my family every night.
1080
01:00:19,657 --> 01:00:22,785
Whereas I wasn't going home
to my family in Madrid.
1081
01:00:22,869 --> 01:00:24,746
[quiet, contemplative music playing]
1082
01:00:24,829 --> 01:00:26,873
[man chattering in Spanish]
1083
01:00:28,082 --> 01:00:30,752
[David] And that was difficult,
to not have my family.
1084
01:00:33,046 --> 01:00:34,964
[Victoria] Yeah, I love this song.
1085
01:00:35,048 --> 01:00:36,299
This is David's favorite.
1086
01:00:36,382 --> 01:00:37,884
-[man] Oh yeah?
-[Victoria] Yeah.
1087
01:00:37,967 --> 01:00:39,969
[David] She just didn't want
to sit at home.
1088
01:00:40,470 --> 01:00:42,930
She just didn't want
to become a footballer's wife.
1089
01:00:43,014 --> 01:00:44,557
No.
1090
01:00:44,641 --> 01:00:46,684
So, let's go down
to "rep will be diminished."
1091
01:00:47,477 --> 01:00:50,188
And that's what I loved
about her from day one.
1092
01:00:50,271 --> 01:00:52,231
[singing]
1093
01:00:55,652 --> 01:00:58,988
I remember being upset
on the phone to Victoria
1094
01:00:59,864 --> 01:01:01,741
because I felt lonely.
1095
01:01:02,617 --> 01:01:06,162
[man speaking Spanish] What about
the rumors that you're not settled?
1096
01:01:07,288 --> 01:01:08,915
[Míchel] David was hurting,
1097
01:01:09,624 --> 01:01:12,710
so we got, like, a group of friends,
1098
01:01:12,794 --> 01:01:16,047
you know, like, to surround David,
to make him feel better.
1099
01:01:16,130 --> 01:01:18,800
[chattering in Spanish]
1100
01:01:23,554 --> 01:01:26,683
[Ronaldo speaking Spanish]
We let him know that we were there,
1101
01:01:26,766 --> 01:01:29,060
un, for whatever he needed.
1102
01:01:31,646 --> 01:01:33,481
[Carlos] But I still remember one day,
1103
01:01:33,981 --> 01:01:37,568
I see David and Roberto Carlos
eating in the same table.
1104
01:01:38,653 --> 01:01:40,071
I thought,
1105
01:01:40,154 --> 01:01:42,073
"How can one guy
that doesn't speak English
1106
01:01:42,156 --> 01:01:45,451
and another one
that doesn't speak Portuguese or Spanish,
1107
01:01:45,535 --> 01:01:47,870
being two hours together, laughing?"
1108
01:01:47,954 --> 01:01:49,664
[inspirational music playing]
1109
01:01:49,747 --> 01:01:51,999
[Roberto speaking Spanish]
It was about gestures.
1110
01:01:52,625 --> 01:01:57,255
He knew exactly what I was saying to him
and vice versa.
1111
01:02:02,135 --> 01:02:05,096
[Míchel] I think, after that,
he started to relax, you know?
1112
01:02:06,139 --> 01:02:08,558
Something that is sacred is that
1113
01:02:08,641 --> 01:02:10,560
you have to be wanted…
1114
01:02:12,437 --> 01:02:13,438
be loved,
1115
01:02:14,814 --> 01:02:16,065
by your teammates.
1116
01:02:16,733 --> 01:02:19,402
You have to be
a part of the dressing room.
1117
01:02:19,485 --> 01:02:22,029
[inspirational music continues]
1118
01:02:27,618 --> 01:02:29,245
[inspirational music intensifies]
1119
01:02:29,328 --> 01:02:31,873
[presenter speaking Spanish]
It's David Beckham's first game
1120
01:02:31,956 --> 01:02:34,417
at the Bernabéu before his fans.
1121
01:02:35,710 --> 01:02:38,171
[David] I wanted to prove
to the Real Madrid fans…
1122
01:02:41,132 --> 01:02:42,675
that I was good enough.
1123
01:02:43,217 --> 01:02:45,219
But that stadium…
1124
01:02:47,638 --> 01:02:48,556
it's tough.
1125
01:02:48,639 --> 01:02:50,600
[music becomes suspenseful]
1126
01:02:50,683 --> 01:02:51,726
It's tough.
1127
01:02:53,311 --> 01:02:56,230
[presenter]
It's a complete sellout here today.
1128
01:02:58,357 --> 01:03:00,735
[David] And you walk up,
and you're just like,
1129
01:03:01,360 --> 01:03:02,445
"Oh my God."
1130
01:03:05,281 --> 01:03:07,241
It's very intimidating.
1131
01:03:07,325 --> 01:03:12,038
You've seen some great players play there
and they crumble.
1132
01:03:14,290 --> 01:03:15,374
[chuckling]
1133
01:03:15,458 --> 01:03:18,628
[speaking Spanish]
He's nervous. [chuckles]
1134
01:03:19,754 --> 01:03:22,215
[commentator 1]
Beckham, the big focus of attention.
1135
01:03:22,298 --> 01:03:24,592
So much has been written
and said about him.
1136
01:03:24,675 --> 01:03:28,679
Substituted in his previous game.
He lasted less than an hour.
1137
01:03:32,517 --> 01:03:36,521
[man speaking Spanish] He's been asked
to play more defensive again.
1138
01:03:37,021 --> 01:03:39,398
[speaking Spanish]
He's played 14 years on the right.
1139
01:03:39,482 --> 01:03:40,942
[tense music playing]
1140
01:03:41,025 --> 01:03:45,321
But great players
all have moments in their life
1141
01:03:45,404 --> 01:03:48,825
when they find a new dimension.
1142
01:03:50,243 --> 01:03:53,538
[commentator 1] But one thing he's not
getting at the moment in Spain is time.
1143
01:03:53,621 --> 01:03:55,832
They want him to perform right now.
1144
01:03:56,541 --> 01:03:59,961
[speaking Spanish] He just needed to relax
because the buck didn't stop with him.
1145
01:04:00,044 --> 01:04:01,587
If we win, we win as one.
1146
01:04:02,547 --> 01:04:04,924
If we lose, we lose as one.
1147
01:04:08,427 --> 01:04:10,763
[crowd shouting]
1148
01:04:10,847 --> 01:04:13,516
See near Daddy?
See the guy in the green near Daddy?
1149
01:04:14,809 --> 01:04:17,061
Look at how long his hair is.
1150
01:04:17,144 --> 01:04:19,105
[David] But having my family there…
1151
01:04:21,357 --> 01:04:23,568
was a special moment for me.
1152
01:04:23,651 --> 01:04:24,819
[exhales deeply]
1153
01:04:24,902 --> 01:04:26,070
Then I felt safe.
1154
01:04:26,153 --> 01:04:28,489
[slow, dramatic, classical music playing]
1155
01:04:32,910 --> 01:04:35,371
[commentator 1]
Mallorca starting to bite back a bit.
1156
01:04:37,081 --> 01:04:39,000
David Beckham making up great ground.
1157
01:04:39,083 --> 01:04:40,960
[commentator 2]
Beckham's up to prove a point.
1158
01:04:41,043 --> 01:04:43,045
We're just warming up now.
1159
01:04:44,881 --> 01:04:46,465
[commentator 1] Here's Luís Figo.
1160
01:04:47,925 --> 01:04:48,885
Zinedine Zidane.
1161
01:04:49,635 --> 01:04:51,095
Okay, now we start to play.
1162
01:04:52,471 --> 01:04:53,472
Zidane.
1163
01:04:54,098 --> 01:04:57,518
Zidane delivers!
David Beckham trying to get in on that.
1164
01:05:00,521 --> 01:05:02,106
[Carlos] Then, all of a sudden,
1165
01:05:03,024 --> 01:05:05,568
he start to grow up, he start to grow up.
1166
01:05:05,651 --> 01:05:07,069
[music becomes more dramatic]
1167
01:05:07,153 --> 01:05:08,613
[commentator 1] Beckham now.
1168
01:05:12,450 --> 01:05:14,410
With that magic right foot.
1169
01:05:15,620 --> 01:05:17,622
[commentator 1]
Real Madrid are looking hungry.
1170
01:05:18,205 --> 01:05:21,083
David Beckham, oh! Superb cross.
1171
01:05:21,167 --> 01:05:23,002
[Carlos] And I was in the sideline,
1172
01:05:23,502 --> 01:05:26,464
enjoying that ball flying…
1173
01:05:26,547 --> 01:05:28,382
[music becomes more dramatic]
1174
01:05:28,466 --> 01:05:29,926
[commentator 1] Beckham.
1175
01:05:30,009 --> 01:05:31,052
[Carlos] …and land.
1176
01:05:32,428 --> 01:05:33,596
Flying and land.
1177
01:05:33,679 --> 01:05:35,056
[commentator 2] Here's Beckham.
1178
01:05:35,139 --> 01:05:37,975
[commentator 1]
Beckham, looking to turn provider.
1179
01:05:39,852 --> 01:05:42,980
Whoo. Behind this pretty face,
wait a minute.
1180
01:05:43,064 --> 01:05:45,024
[dramatic music builds in intensity]
1181
01:05:45,107 --> 01:05:47,485
[commentator 1]
Real Madrid are going to burst away.
1182
01:05:59,538 --> 01:06:00,539
He's kept it in.
1183
01:06:00,623 --> 01:06:03,334
And… Oh, Beckham!
1184
01:06:03,918 --> 01:06:04,794
Yes!
1185
01:06:05,378 --> 01:06:07,922
You can feel the relief!
1186
01:06:08,005 --> 01:06:10,383
David Beckham scores!
1187
01:06:10,466 --> 01:06:14,345
He is the man of the moment! Hooray!
1188
01:06:15,388 --> 01:06:17,348
Beautiful. Beautiful.
1189
01:06:17,431 --> 01:06:18,891
