Fever Pitch

描述

Writer Nick Hornby (High Fidelity, About a Boy) adapts his own memoir about his fervent devotion to Arsenal Football Club in Fever Pitch (1997), a tale for anyone who's ever cherished a fixation. Academy AwardTM-winner Colin Firth stars as Paul, a gifted young teacher whose football (or, as Americans call it, soccer) obsession gets in the way of his burgeoning relationship with an attractive colleague. As his team edges toward their first championship in two decades, can Paul sort out where his most passionate feelings really lie? Directed by David Evans (Downton Abbey).
