Bend It Like Beckham

I have always liked this film. It is very fun. And I always get a kick from seeing 'typical Asian family dynamics' on screen. Like I TOTALLY understand the strictness, the lying and sneaking, covering for your siblings. We just GET IT. 
One and a half thumbs up - probably because of the current zeitgeist, I am particularly aware that this is a film featuring mostly women, predominately 'of colour' and touches on racism, LGBT; but is overall a fairly liked film with a lot of people. I think being centred around sports helped. A lot.
