SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
A one-time tennis pro, Chris Wilton (Jonathan Rhys Meyers)
was used to falling just short in his life. But when he befriends
Tom Hewett (Matthew Goode) and marries his sister, Chloe (Emily
Mortimer), the doors are opened to the kind of money and success
that Chris had once only dreamed of. Chris should have settled
for happiness, but he is torn by his attraction to Tom’s
impossibly beautiful and sensual fiance, Nola (Scarlett Johansson).
The attraction turns to an obsession that forces Chris to
make a critical choice. Now everything in his life hinges
on if Chris falls short again…and whether or not his
luck runs out.
“Match Point” is a drama about ambition and obsession,
the seduction of wealth, and the often discordant relationship
between love and sexual passion. Perhaps most importantly,
however, the story reveals the huge part luck plays in the
events of our lives, refuting the comforting misconception
that more of life is under our control than really is.
Written and directed by Academy Award® winner Woody Allen
(“Annie Hall,” “Hannah and Her Sisters”),
“Match Point” represents a departure for the native
New Yorker, the majority of whose films lovingly depict New
York and—not always so lovingly—New Yorkers. Crossing
the Atlantic for the first time in his film career, Allen
set “Match Point” in London, where it was also
filmed.
