There are no user reviews yet - Be first to review Charlie Hustle & the Matter of Pete Rose.
-
Pete Rose is a complicated figure, perhaps as complicated as any in the history of baseball. Whether you love him or hate him, Charlie Hustle & The Matter of Pete Rose will keep your interest; the whole story is there, and you can pick your side.
-
If the modern era of celebrity documentaries has been defined by glossy image management and hagiography, filmmaker Mark Monroe achieves something more absorbing and tension-filled simply because Rose is such a dodgy and unreliable narrator.
-
Reasoning often gets lost in emotions surrounding Mr. Rose, but Mr. Monroe is not a sycophant and his subject is his own worst enemy. None of which is to suggest there isn't a stadium's worth of hypocrisy in Major League Baseball, as the series also makes perfectly clear. .... There is a lot of great baseball footage in "Charlie Hustle," a terrific overview of the games and personalities that made '70s and '80s baseball so exciting.
