A fun movie, indeed!  Where can I find me a soccer coach like that???  Rosie, do you have any more cousins to pimp out to your Anglophile Internet friends?   :wink:

Poor girls, though.  Those characters aspired to play in the women's professional soccer league in the USA, and now it has disbanded because of lack of sponsorship.   :cry:

I loved that movie! I was assigned to see it and write a paper on it for my final exam in Multicultural Psych last spring so I was very pleased that it was soooooo great!

Am I going crazy or is the lead girl (eek forgot her name) in that movie now on ER? I just watched ER for the first time in aaaaaaaages last week and I swear it was her.

lastly, mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmJonathan Reys Myers!!!

I must say, although I can't abide sports, Bend It was a great movie. In addition to featuring as a minor theme one of the major themes from the novel Dracula--that is, that nothing is as it seems (sorry for my shameless promotion of a 19th century Gothic novel 8) )--Bend It, and also My Big Fat Greek Wedding, tap into a genre that I think has a lot of potential--ethnic comedies!

Yes, you have  :) . It was a part in the movie where one of the girls say about the coach, "he's quite fit, isn't he?" -- I instantly thought you and that phrase "fittay."  :wink:
