Boom! Boom! The World vs. Boris Becker plot

Boris Becker made his first triumph at Wimbledon in 1985 as a 17-year-old and became the youngest player ever to be crowned champion. Thirty-four years later, when his financial problems have turned into a lawsuit, he returns to perhaps the only place he loves for the documentary portrait of Alex Gibney. Gibney's film is about precision and accuracy, about being in control - or at least mastering the psychological tricks to appear so - about ups and downs and the thin line that separates (self) deception from reality. Becker was interviewed for this film in 2019 and again in 2022, just days before his sentencing.

Strong two-part documentary about the rise and fall of tennis phenomenon Boris Becker. Director Alex Gibney interviews him in 2019 and again in 2022, when Becker's financial problems have escalated into a lawsuit. Both parts, the aptly titled Triumph and Disaster, are worthwhile and contain a wealth of beautiful archive recordings and interviews. Becker is a difficult to understand, often arrogant person, but ultimately I felt sorry for him, no matter how many wrong decisions he has made in his life. And there are a lot of them.
