Pics and video: le périple rouge

[kat_lys]

This is my favorite video ever and I had to share it with you. Le Périple Rouge is a documentary about Monaco, from 2003-2004, when the club made it to the Champions League finale. In the team were a lot of funny and talented players like Giuly, Morientes, Squillaci, Givet, Evra and more!

The video shows their european competition and get you inside

Thank you for introducing us to such a wonderful team, with such a great story behind them!
The caps are quite precious, hehehe.

Sad part is that half those people are no longer with Monaco... :(

Shall download when I get home.

MERCI BEAUCOUP! XD

I love watching this documentary and I hope you will too! Enjoy! :D

Oh, thanks for the video! I've always wanted to see this video in full. I've always seen the crazy clips of Mori singing "on est en finale" and speaking in terrible french but adorably.

By the by, that terrible shirt of his with the dragonfly, I think is one that Raul designed for some company/charity.

You're welcomed! :)

Mori singing "on est en finale" and speaking in terrible french but adorably.
I love it when he speaks french! And in the video, he's joking with the camera man telling him that he's french is good - when it's actually terrible but adorably, like you said :D

Oh, thx for the info about the shirt! Heheh, maybe he doesn't really like it but feel obliged to wear it to please Raul lol (or that's what I like to think^^)

such a wonderful post! this really made me want to see the film but Megaupload won't work for me, unfortunately. I'll definitely try to find it, though :)

[kat_lys]

I can upload it on a different place if you want, just tell me where you'd like it :)

[yetunknown]

well, so far, I know sendspace, mediafire, boxnet and savefile work for me. I don't know if you can upload the film on any of those if the file's big, though. is it on youtube? I can just watch it there so as not to trouble you.

[kat_lys]

I'm uploading it on Sendspace right now... will give you the link when it's done :)

[spritemuffin]

oh. my. god. this sounds like the most ADORABLE thing in the WORLD. I'm going to watch it (even though my French is TERRIBLE) right now! (well soon... ish... lol)

[kat_lys]

It is adorable! Even if they didn't win the CL, the video is amazing!
Enjoy! :D

THX a lot

[spritemuffin]

Thx a lot for your explanation. I don't speak french but I grasp the general idea of the video.

You are the fulfillment of one of my dearest footie wishes, I've long dreamt of someone making the full footage available, and here it is! With some translation even! ♥'s Thank you!

I surfed over from ontd_football after seeing you mention that Mori was one of your first crushes.

[kat_lys]

This video is still the best footie thing I've ever seen. The team was amazing and incredibly funny.
I hope you'll enjoy it! :)

Oh, Mori! <3
I still have a crush on him.

[tall_tree]

I enjoyed it a lot, thank you so much. Ah, Monaco back then was a team to truly fall in love with. (I think my favorite part was Giuly exclaiming about Mori being the most expensive player in France. Hee!)

Oh, Mori! <3
I still have a crush on him.

Good to hear. And your icon is love. It's hard to ever lose the crushes on Mori or Raúl. they're classics.

Because tall_tree won't stop bothering me about it, I've come to download, too -- thank you for making it available! (:
