The Albion in film?

[The Buttery Biscuit Base]

The other day I was watching The Damned United, and it got me thinking. Apart from The Damned United and Forced Vengeance, do we get any other mentions on the big screen?

Ralph Brown wore an Albion shirt in that prison football film (Mean Machine?) - can't remember if we got a verbal reference.

 

[The Large One]

It was in Up & Under - a rugby league film. But there was an Albion pennant on the wall of his office in Mean Machine.

It's about time someone made a film of "and smith must score" ( the great premium bond swindle)

 

[Captain Haddock]

How about The Falmer Stadium Mystery, a thriller about dodgy dealings, planning shenanigans and with a Hollywood ending (vs Donny on August 6th 2011).

So the list currently reads:

The Damned United
Forced Vengeance
Up & Under
Mean Machine

This disappoints me.

Not sure if it's true or not, but I heard something about a storm trooper in one of the star wars movies was wearing a brighton watch which you can vaguely make out. Not sure though as I haven't seen it myself

I know it doesn't count as film but does anyone remenber Slade recording a video on the pitch before a match at the Goldstone in the late 70s? I distinctly remeber the North Stand kept chanting "Noddy Holder he's a wanker".

 

[Deleted User X18H]

I am sure there is a billboard in the original Brighton Rock advertising a match. They were filming up the Drove the other day two young lads messing about with a suitcase. Bloke had a big camera on his shoulder and another with a boom mic. Irrelevant I know but interesting.

yes they did,it was called "give us a goal".Just watched the video on youtube.I was in the Northstand at the time but can't remember who we were playing.

Slades give Us a goal.
Note in the video Brighton didn't actually "give them a goal"
Some things never change

great idea would make a good low/middle budget film and would attract some of our albion following actors,could see it doing quite well!

There are plenty of seagulls in one of the Hitchcock films, can't remember which one
