Film review: Defoe
After making a couple of award-winning short films, US-based writer and director James Ross has come across the pond for his debut feature, shifting genre from horror to sports documentary. A lifelong Spurs fan, this biographical film charts the illustrious career of one of their most prolific strikers. Defoe came up playing on the streets of East London before competing at the highest level for West Ham United, Tottenham Hotspur, Sunderland, and more, and represented England on the world’s stage.
