Berbicara di hadapan para penggemarnya di Lapangan Leicester, London, Beckham mengaku dalam emosi tinggi saat dia dan keluarganya menyaksikan "The Class of 92", sebuah film dokumenter yang mengupas fenomena belakang layar dari tim muda MU tahun 1992 yang legendaris itu, seperti dilansir Yahoo News.
Film ini memokuskan perhatian pada enam pemain yang menjadi bintang selama periode sukses tiada tara klub Inggris utara itu di bawah asuhan Alex Ferguson.
Lima pemain lainnya adalah kakak beradik Gary dan Phil Neville, gelandang Nicky Butt, Ryan Giggs dan Paul Scholes yang sudah pensiun. Kelimanya juga menghadiri pemutaran perdana film dokumenter itu di London.
"Akan ada sedikit tangisan di sana dari ibuku tentunya," kata Beckham, yang ditemani istrinya Victoria dan tiga anaknya, Brooklyn, Romeo dan Cruz.
"Ada masa bahagia, ada masa sedih, ada juga masa sulit di mana kami semua terikat bersama," jelas pesepakbola berusia 38 tahun itu. "Namun itu adalah bagian dari film, bagian dari sejarah kami berenam. Itulah mengapa itu menjadi cerita yang hebat."
Kendati sering tampil glamor, Beckham mengaku tak tertarik berakting. "Saya tidak terlalu bagus berakting, jadi mungkin sama sekali bukan gagasan yang baik untuk masuk ke industri semacam itu," kata dia. "Tapi saya menikmati melakukan ini."
London - Six Manchester United icons including David Beckham on Sunday attended the London premiere of a film celebrating the youth team that would go on to transform the English football club into a global phenomenon.
Speaking on the red carpet in front of hordes of fans at London´s Leicester Square, Beckham predicted high emotions when he and his family watched "The Class of 92", a documentary which goes behind the scenes of United´s legendary 1992 youth team.
The film focusses on the six players who went on to star for the first team during a period of unprecedented success for the northern England powerhouse, under the guidance of recently retired manager Alex Ferguson.
The other five players -- brothers Gary and Phil Neville, midfielder Nicky Butt, current first-teamer Ryan Giggs and recently retired Paul Scholes -- were also in London for the premiere.
"There will be a few tears in there from my mum I´m sure," said Beckham, who was flanked by his wife Victoria and three sons, Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz.
"There were good times, there were bad times, there were troubled times where we all stuck together," explained the 38-year-old. "But that is part of the movie, part of the history of the six of us. That is why it makes this such a great story."
Instead, the often underperforming club went on a trophy binge and became one of the world´s most recognised sporting brands.
Despite his silver-screen appearance, Beckham wrote off ideas of an acting career. "I´m not very good at acting, so maybe it wouldn´t be a very good idea to go into that kind of industry," he said. "But I enjoyed doing this."
