The Philly Fan

Tom McCarthy’s The Philly Fan stars a gritty union worker who served in Korea, who takes audiences on a roller coaster ride through 50 years of Philadelphia’s sports history, and the frustrations that go along with it. This tell-it-like-it-is trip through the eyes of a hard-core sports fan is R-rated for the necessarily salty language that truthfully captures the highs and lows of watching pro sports teams.
