My favorite movie, starring Scarlett Johansson & Jonathon Rhys Meyers... absolutely brilliant!

"Tennis pro Chris Wilton takes a job as a tennis instructor and hits it off immediately with one of his students, wealthy young Tom Hewitt. Tom introduces Chris to his family and Chris falls quickly into a romance with Tom's sister Chloe. But despite the growing certainty that Chris and Chloe will marry, and the enormous professional and financial advantages that come Chris's way through his relationship with the delighted Hewitt family, Chris becomes increasingly intrigued and eventually romantically involved with Tom's fiancée, Nola Rice, a struggling American actress. Their passionate trysts leave Chris in danger of losing the wealth and position he has now come to enjoy. The only solution to the dilemma seems unthinkable..."

Yeah, twas one of my favorite movies of last year, and a real welcome return to greatness for Woody Allen...now I'm really looking forward to his next one which stars Scarlett again, as well as a return to acting for Woody. It's called Scoop, and looks to be a return to comedy from the previews, but a murder mystery as well...hopefully it'll be as good as it looks...if it's half as good as Match Point, I'll be happy. :D

I have not seen this movie, but I have to rent it! I like Jonathan in Bend it Like Beckham!
