Dopo trentacinque film Woody Allen riesce ancora a sbalordire il suo pubblico trapiantando oltreoceano il suo inconfondibile humour nero e adattandolo al mondo patinato dell’upper-class britannica. \u00c8\u00a0Match Point<\/em>, film presentato all’ultimo Festival di Cannes e dedicato ad un’Europa che ha adottato il maestro di Brooklyn restituendogli quella autorialit\u00e0 che l’America dei numeri da tempo non gli riconosceva pi\u00f9. Nel film facciamo presto la conoscenza di Chris Wilton (Jonathan Rhys-Meyers), ragazzo irlandese dotato per il tennis ma che ha preferito l’insegnamento alla competizione. Il suo impiego in un prestigioso circolo londinese gli permette di conoscere Tom Hewett (Matthew Goode) che lo introduce nella sua famiglia e di conseguenza nell’alta societ\u00e0 inglese. Chris si accorge delle particolari attenzioni riservategli dalla sorella di Tom, Chloe (Emily Mortimer) e, dopo una breve frequentazione, decide di portarla all’altare, anche e soprattutto per non perdere quel treno lastricato d’oro. Ma c’\u00e8 anche un’altra donna che irrompe nella vita di Chris, \u00e8 Nola Rice (Scarlett Johansson) la compagna di Tom. Tra i due \u00e8 vero e proprio colpo di fulmine, eppure nessuno dei due ha intenzione di sacrificare la scalata sociale per l’amore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Tu credi che siamo noi a fare la sorte” scrive Grazia Deledda. No, risponde Woody Allen con il suo primo film inglese, e nulla come un campo da tennis pu\u00f2 rappresentare gli istanti in cui la vita prende una piega piuttosto che un’altra: come quando la palla rimbalza sulla rete, inizia a volteggiare, a ruotare, e ricade da un lato del campo, decidendo spesso le sorti del match, cos\u00ec la vita dei suoi protagonisti prende una piega imprevista per pochi inevitabili istanti. \u00abControlliamo le nostre vite meno di quanto pensiamo\u00bb afferma lo stesso Allen che riprende alcuni temi di\u00a0The Woman in White<\/em>\u00a0di Andrew Lloyd Webber e la filosofia degli “equilibri punteggiati” di Gould descrivendo nella figura del suo protagonista maschile una doppia ingerenza del caso: sia nelle sue doti sportive, sia negli eventi che lo coinvolgeranno fuori dal campo. Eppure la vera forza che controlla Chris \u00e8 quella ipocrisia borghese che lo ha ormai avvolto quando \u00e8 chiamato a fare le sue scelte. E il film di Allen \u00e8 proprio come una partita, a tratti noiosa, a tratti coinvolgente, ma dal finale improvviso, schiacciante, uno smash vincente dopo due ore di gioco. E il risultato \u00e8 salvo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
