Though I was somewhat familiar with some of the issues around football and its risks, this powerful film gutted me. Football has always had a primal appeal to me, but seeing this film, especially the powerful interviews with the families of former players, left me with an understanding of the lethal price of the game's appeal.
The stories told here, by football players and their families as well as by researchers and brain scientists, have haunted me ever since watching this film. I now understand the game differently and was not surprised to hear that the NFL doesn't want people watching this film. Highly, highly recommended.
