You don’t have to be a soccer fan to love Bend It Like Beckham! Jess Bhamra (Parminder Nagra) is the daughter of a strict Indian couple in London who expects her to go to school, marry a nice man, and become a mother. But all Jess wants to do is play football.
When Jules Paxton (Keira Knightley) catches Jess playing in the park one day, she’s impressed and convinces Jess to play for her semi-pro team. Knowing she’ll have to hide the fact that she’s playing organized soccer from her parents, Jess keeps coming up with elaborate excuses to hide her matches from her parents — all while developing romantic feelings for her coach, Joe (Jonathan Rhys Meyers).
Inspired by the hit children’s book, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs tells the story of outcast inventor Flint Lockwood (Bill Hader), who finally gets his big breakthrough when he creates a machine that makes clouds rain food.
Overnight, he’s given a huge lifeline to the down-and-out town of Chewandswallow, and becomes the most popular guy in town. But when it doesn’t stop raining food, Flint has to jump into crisis mode to stop his machine before the entire town is drowned in food.
