Abstract
match point is a movie which was directed by woody allen in 2004. It was shot in london. This movie tells the story of Chris, a man looking for a new life. Throughout the movie he seems to find it. As a coach in a private tennis club, he becomes friend with Tom Hewett before going out with his sister, Chloe. Rapidly he became integrated in their family, a wealthy British one, and obtains a high-powered job in the City. But his attraction towards Nola, Tom's ex-fiancée, is uncontrollable. When she asks him to leave his wife, Chloe, he finds himself in an awkward situation especially when Nola, and then Chloe, tell him they are pregnant. He uses desperate means to keep Nola quiet. In the context of this movie, I am going to study the following subject: "ambivalent london". In order to understand the subject properly let's start off by defining the term "ambivalence": we say about someone that he is ambivalent if he does not know or does not make it clear whether he wants or does not want something, or whether he approves of it or does not approve of it.
