Work has been kind of nuts lately (lots of projects requiring lots of revisions all coming due at once) and home has been equally busy. But I decided to treat myself to a cheap copy of Wimbledon, a slight rom com with Paul Bettany, and Nicholaj Coster-Waldau (oh, and Kirsten Dunst) that I've been meaning to watch for ages.
It is lovely.
It's not deep, it doesn't have high drama, it follows the expected arc of a rom com. But it's chock full of good actors (James McAvoy, Bernard Hill, Eleanor Bron and Robert Lindsay have minor but key roles), the characters mostly behave like reasonable adults, and Bettany and Coster-Waldau play best friends and tennis practice partners with a nicely slashy vibe.
I mean, just look at them:

Aren't they adorable together?
At some point I've got to do a proper pic spam for both these lads.
