Scarlett gets an 'A' for new thriller flick
By Kevin Knickerbocker | January 26, 2006Movie-going audiences of today rarely associate Woody Allen films with intense drama, hot young stars or an operatic score, but Allen's new thriller Match Point has all three. Starring Jonathan Rhys Meyers and Scarlett Johansson (Lost in Translation), Match Point is an intense investigation of the difference between love and lust, and the psychological pressure of an adulterous relationship. The film follows Chris Wilton (Rhys Meyers), a Scottish tennis player past his prime who has moved to London to give tennis lessons to wealthy socialites.
