This could have been posted under Romantic Movie Ideas for Regs, but we'll give it its own thread anyways.
Bend It Like Beckham, is about a young Indian girl, with fantastic footballing skills, who disobeys her parents by playing with a high level London girls team. There's a romantic interest, cultural issues, sexual issues, and a reasonable amount of teenage lockerroom skin shots (read: small nuggets in sportsbras).
Quite frankly with the recent multiple releases of footie movies such as Mean Machine, A Shot At Glory, and Shoalin Soccer, this one actually ranks quite highly despite its chick-flick style. The accents are authentic, the girls are good looking, the story is decent and your better half will love you for watching it with her.
Movie Trailer.
