Pelé is considered the greatest fotball player of all time. The only player to win three World Cups and who became a world star in the 60s. Pelé Eterno (2004) shows the player's trajectory from childhood to retirement, with rare archive footage and many testimonials from friends, journalists and former players.
Unfortunately, the film doesn't address Pelé's controversies: Bankruptcy in 1974, the unrecognized daughter or the criticism of the drop in performance after the 1966 World Cup. There are 2 hours of so much praise that it gets to be exhausting. The text could have been better done too.
A good record of videos from the career of the best footballer of all time. Recommended for those who like football and don't want anything deep. 6/10.
