Anyone got any Tennis themed film recommendations to get the mood going?

My starter for 10 is Match Point.

The only other one I can think of is Battle of the Sexes, which scores quite well on Rotten Tomatoes but I've not seen it. I'm not sure that the tennis film genre is fertile hunting ground to be honest. Love a bit of Today at Wimbledon in the evening, mind :)

Oh yes, I had forgotten about that one. I have seen it and it wasnt bad. In similar fashion 'Wimbledon' is not the greatest of films but very watchable, and we usually have that on at some time around the tournament.

Is Match Point the Paul Bettany one? If so yes that’s pretty good.

In the spirit of reconciliation and happiness at the end of the Banter Era (RIP) and as a result of promotion I have cleared out my ignore list. Look forwards to reading your posts!

No, that is Wimbledon.

MAtch Point is Scarlett Johanson and Jonathon Rhys-Meyers.

I'd second that suggestion. Wes Anderson's films are really easy on the eye and although the film is not about tennis, the tennis scene is one of the best bits.
