A dated but impressively thorough documentary of the Montreal Expos. Year by year installments chronicle the entire history of the franchise. The collection of footage and interviews is thorough, and the contemporary music for each season really helps take you back.
Sutherland’s narration is a little creepy and melodramatic, and he’s dressed like a gangster at a funeral, but he does the job. A rabid Expos fan, he does seem to have been the best choice.
As far as I’m concerned, this is the best history of the Montreal Expos. A new installment for the final years from 1989-2004, a time that featured some of baseball’s greatest stars working their way through the Montreal franchise, a lot of dramatic turmoil, and a final move to DC, would be perfect.
