Back on the retrospective with what is widely regarded as one of Woody Allen's greatest movies... well... this, Annie Hall and one other are often in heavy debate for the top spot... There is no debate this is a great movie so we will gush and discuss....
In Match Point (2005) Chris Wilton (Jonathan Rhys Meyers), a former tennis pro from Ireland, ascends the social ladder in London by marrying Chloe Hewett (Emily Mortimer), the daughter of a wealthy businessman. However, Chris's ambitions and lust for success threaten to unravel his carefully constructed facade when he falls for Nola Rice (Scarlett Johansson), the volatile and unpredictable American girlfriend of his brother-in-law, Tom Hewett (Matthew Goode).
As Chris navigates the complexities of his relationships and the allure of social status, he grapples with moral dilemmas and the potential consequences of his actions. His desire for wealth, power, and acceptance leads him down a dangerous path, blurring the lines between ambition and desperation.
