Gascoigne

Gascoigne (2015) is a feature documentary you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Jane Preston — ninety minutes built around Paul Gascoigne himself and the people who watched him up close.

Gary Lineker, José Mourinho, Wayne Rooney, Vinnie Jones, Bobby Robson and Diego Maradona all appear. Together they trace the arc of a footballer who produced some of the finest moments English football has seen — the tears at Italia 90, the free-kick in the FA Cup semi-final against Arsenal — and then spent years finding new ways to wreck what he had. Gascoigne speaks throughout. That turns out to matter: he's still surprising.

Preston doesn't push a verdict. The film lays it out and lets you sit with it. Stream Gascoigne (2015) online on iFILM.
