match point

- "The man who said "I'd rather be lucky than good" saw deeply into life. People are afraid to face how great a part of life is dependent on luck. It's scary to think so much is out of one's control. There are moments in a match when the ball hits the top of the net and for a split second it can either go forward or fall back. With a little luck it goes forward and you win. Or maybe it doesn't and you lose."
( Match Point - Woody Allen - 2005)

- There is a scene in which Chris Wilton keenly unfolds his mobile phone to call Nola but when he hears her voice saying "hello?" his face gets transfigured. She is still wandering when he slowly brings his hand down and folds the mobile.
...
And I loved the bitterness.
