Wimbledon
The problem with dating a tennis player is that the subject of LOVE always comes up.
Mind you, the competitive couple in this rom-com uses the term of affection both on and off the court.
A British tennis player, Peter (Paul Bettany), nearing the end of his career takes one last kick at the can and lands a wildcard spot at Wimbledon. During the tournament he falls for Lizzie (Kirsten Dunst), the top ranking US female player. Lizzie's father (Sam Neill) disapproves of the union because it's affecting her performance.
However, the reverse is happening to Peter's game as he moves up the rankings.
While there is a spattering of chemistry between the leads, it's the sharp dialogue, the behind-the-scenes squabbles and the intensity of this upper crust sport that make this predictable love story really work.
Unfortunately, when you date another tennis player your bleach budget doubles. Yellow Light
