Amusing, uplifting, and about as sugary and teeth-sabotaging as caramelized popcorn, The Beautiful Game celebrates the healing power of team sports for those who might feel pushed to society’s margins by misfortune or choice. Although prefaced with the vague assurance that it’s based on true stories, this comedy-drama by eminent British screenwriter Frank Cottrell-Boyce (The Railway Man) and directed by Thea Sharrock (Wicked Little Letters) is a tidily assembled, happy-ending-hewing narrative package that revolves mostly around the fortunes of a half dozen unhoused men, competing for England in the Homeless World Cup.
Bill Nighy stars as the team’s manager, a former scout for major London football club West Ham, who takes the team to Rome, where he must also accommodate each player’s foibles and faults, including the arrogance of star striker Vinnie (Micheal Ward, of Empire of Light). After a short theatrical run in the U.

Liam Hemsworth‘s girlfriend Gabriella Brooks just shared a rare glimpse into their life together.
The longtime couple has been linked since late 2019. However, they very rarely make red carpet appearances together and largely keep their relationship out of the spotlight.
Nearly four months since their last appearance, Gabriella shared some new photos from a couple’s getaway.
Head inside to see Gabriella Brooks’ new photos…
On Tuesday (March 26), Gabriella posted three black-and-white photos from a trip to Swanage, a town in England, on Instagram.
In the first, Gabriella is pictured running down the beach toward the shoreline. The second photo is of the surrounding landscape. Her final photo is a candid of Liam sitting in the car.
“First swim of spring :) it was freezing,” she wrote in the accompanying caption. Even though it was cold, we hope that the couple had a wonderful trip together!

At its best, Fire Country is one of the most thrilling dramas on network television.
Borrowing the best elements from the procedural and nighttime soap genres, the show's first season took a risky premise. It developed it into a bonafide hit with writing a notch above the standard primetime fare.
The secret was relatable characters whose interpersonal drama helped to offset the wackiness of some of the more outlandish action storylines.
Is the show sacrificing the believability of its first season by featuring implausible emergency scenarios?
Did the writers paint themselves into a corner with a premise that all but demands that they raise the stakes week after week? We've already considered that Fire Country may have fizzled out, but we're here with a more detailed discussion.

Fire Country is getting the franchise treatment, and an upcoming episode of the original series will give us our first taste of the spinoff.
Fire Country Season 2 Episode 6 — airing Friday, April 12, at 9/8c — introduces Morena Baccarin as Mickey.
Mickey is described as a deputy sheriff “with a surprising connection to the Leones.”
The big episode finds a fire camp inmate escaping from Three Rock, kicking off a cat-and-mouse game as everyone tries to apprehend the inmate.
As expected, Bode and those closest to him will be immersed in the mission, which will attempt to showcase Fire Country’s franchise potential.
CBS likely won’t make a pickup decision until after the episode has aired to assess whether fans warm to Mickey and the conflict she brings to this universe.
Max Thieriot will direct the big episode
The monumental episode will be directed by series star, creator, and executive producer Max Thieriot,...
