Update: Howard will now be hosting.
Join the Boston Sunday Night Film Club this Sunday, May 19th at 6:45p for Challengers at the Coolidge Corner Theatre. Look for Sean Howard wearing a nametag in the theatre lobby about 15 minutes before the film. As always, after the film we will descend on a local establishment for dinner/drinks/discussion.
Tennis player turned coach Tashi (Zendaya) has taken her husband, Art
(Mike Faist), and transformed him into a world-famous grand slam
champion.
To jolt him out of his recent losing streak, she makes him play a
“Challenger” event — close to the lowest level of pro tournament —
where he finds himself standing across the net from his former best
friend and Tashi’s former boyfriend (Josh O’Connor). Directed by Luca
Guadagnino.
