The Subterranean Stadium

Welcome to Subterranean Stadium, the basement of John DiCarlo’s home in Charlotte, NY, where he and his buddies and relatives have gathered for years to play electronic football. In this beautiful, deeply personal film, Morris not only makes the little players come alive, but also lets the men who manipulate them tell their own stories: the hot dog vendor, the ex-con, the Kodak company man and the postal carrier who defies his own health problems to keep the “buzz, buzz, buzz” alive. Yes, they keep score, but as DiCarlo says, “All that really counts is family and friends.”
