★★★★ Carlos Salvador Bilardo belongs to the mythology of Argentine soccer, although -curiously- he is not a myth because the character/person is accessible. The most interesting thing about this series about Bilardo is that it unites the man and football. Unlike Menotti, and like Maradona, Bilardo becomes a character at the very moment in which passion, the absolutist outburst that football represents for him, floods everything. Probably the best thing about this series, in addition to having great testimonies and absolutely remarkable archive material, is to record how a human being, a person whom we can recognize as the neighbor (who writes this, indeed, he has had him as a neighbor: seeing him is not exceptional) he becomes a mythological, irrational, enlightened being through sport. That mystery of Jeckyll and Hyde around the ball is recorded (and remains a mystery) in these four episodes.
