Son of a carpenter? It's worth a thought!moreFAQThis FAQ is empty. Add the first question.User Comments (Comment on this title)3 out of 3 people found the following comment useful:-For the Quintessential Sports Lover, 4 July 2006 Author:sayontan from CaliforniaAs a seven-year old just beginning to learn cricket I had just heardthe name Don Bradman from my father, being referred as the best batsmanever. Naturally, when the show "Bodyline" started airing in India in1985/1986, I was excited since I would get to see how prolific Bradmanwas. I loved the series then, but could never locate it later on rerunsor recorded media. Luckily a couple of weeks back I came across anAustralian website selling DVDs of the series.Watching the series in a new light more than 20 years after I saw itfor the first time was a great experience. Having acquired a goodknowledge of both, the game's history and the rules provided me a freshperspective. And the verdict? The series is brilliant!I did believe it over-dramatised events to an extent. There were alsominor historical inaccuracies and omissions:1. Not having a mention of George Duckworth (the English wicketkeeper)being the person who observed the uncertainties in Bradman's stancewhile facing fast bowling on a wet wicket (attributing it to Larwoodinstead).2. Not showing the Notts captain Arthur Carr providing inputs regardingthe leg theory approach and rehearsing it with Larwood and Voce inEnglish county cricket (rather showing Douglas Jardine doing all theplanning himself).3. Showing Douglas Jardine as an upright and politically correct personnot given to using terms questioning his opponents' parentage (but heactually encouraged his teammates to refer to Bradman as "the littlebastard").4. Bert Oldfield was hit by Larwood on the head while Larwood was notbowling Bodyline, contrary to what the series shows. Moreover the hitwas due to a deflection from Oldfield's bat. Oldfield in fact claimed"My own fault" later.But I am nitpicking. The series is all about showing how and why one ofthe most vilified cricket strategies came into being. It focuses onDouglas Jardine's drive to get the Ashes back in England and shows thathe would not stop at any point as long as he was within the rules. Contrary to what a few other reviewers on this site have written, Ifound the representation of the events quite unbiased.Over-dramatisation is a part of the representation of any sportingevent on-screen and there is no loss of flavour to "Bodyline" for that.If anything, it was charitable to Douglas Jardine. He is always shownas being in awe of Bradman's batting abilities and the main reason forhis tactics comes off as an overwhelming desire to win the Ashes,rather than harbouring racist feelings and hatred towards Australia.Other players are shown in honest light too - Larwood and Voce obeyingtheir captain's orders to the letter, Pataudi quitting when things weregoing against the concepts of fair play, Woodfull refusing to employsimilar tactics both out of choice and necessity (his team did not havebowlers of Larwood's ability), and so on.All in all, this is a great watch. If you are a cricket lover then youshould definitely see it. And if you are a fan of any kind of sports,then this series shows you to what extent it is possible to go to stopa champion.Was the above comment useful to you?moreMessage BoardsDiscuss this title with other users on IMDb message board for "Bodyline" (1984)Recent Posts (updated daily)UserDouglas Jardine is Agent SmithubaidsiddiqiI Have the original 7 hour versionclaire-183Soundtrack????
