Here’s an Oscar-bait movie if ever there was one. Clint Eastwood directs Morgan Freeman as Nelson Mandela, in the story of how the South African president brought the 1995 Rugby World Cup to his country and attempted to use the event to bring the population together following the end of apartheid. The film co-stars Matt Damon (who’s having a busy trailer day, as we just posted the promo for Green Zone) as rugby captain Francois Pienaar, who join forces with Mandela to try and help sport heal South Africa’s wounds.
