Bend it like Beckham

Sliding away from the downer of yesterday, let's focus on something a little more upbeat. Plot summary: An Indian girl in England is a kick footballer, but her traditional parents don't want her to play. She secretly joins a team with a dreamy male coach. Fun ensues.
Seriously, though, that movie is hilarious! At first, I wondered what this plug for Beckham was all about, but I feel you should wait 'til you see the movie before you understand it, too. The juxtaposition of the main girl's family and her English football buddy is too much for words. By the way, the older sister is getting married, and there is some strange hilarity there.
Okay, it seems I don't have a lot to say about this film. Honestly, though, it's a good one to rent if you need a quick pick-up. A solid A-, I say.
