A comprehensive 5-hour documentary, divided into 1-hour episodes, on the founding and 10-season history of the American Football League, tracing from its humble beginning to its eventual merger with the older, more powerful National Football League.
The supreme irony of this wonderfully packaged retelling of the old American Football League's existence throughout the 1960's is just how of much of a debt current day professional football - and even the filmmakers themselves - owe to the grizzled subject matter on-screen. A mesmerizing five-hour odyssey.
