Battle of the Sexes

Emma Stone (The Help, La La Land) and Steve Carell (Evan Almighty, Date Night) both earned Golden Globe nominations for their work in this sports film. The plot is based on a 1973 tennis match between Billie Jean King and Robert Larimore Riggs. It all begins when King and Heldman (Sarah Silverman) confront the legendary ex-tennis player and TV commentator Jack Kramer (Bill Pullman) because of his announcement that the top prize for women will be only one-eight of the men’s prize, saying that women are worse tennis players than men. At the same time Riggs, age 55, with complicated marriage and troubled financial situation, challenges the top woman tennis player. He is convinced that even at this age he can beat any woman. What happens next is history.
