Film 4 Fever Pitch
Description
Based on Nick Hornby’s best-selling autobiography, Fever Pitch is set during the 1988/89 football season. Paul Ashworth (Colin Firth, star of Pride and Prejudice), an English teacher in his thirties, is passionate about Arsenal. As the season and the film progress, the club has a chance of winning the league for the first time in 18 years. Meanwhile, his on off romance with fellow-teacher and non-football fan, Sarah, mirrors the Gunners’ fluctuating season. The romance is dealt a near fatal blow by a home defeat against Derby. Arsenal, Paul and Sarah have one more chance - but it’s a long shot. Hornby’s romantic comedy received considerable critical acclaim and appeals equally to men, women, football fans and the football-perplexed.
