Tennis and Movie Quiz: Will you be able to identify these 9 movies that have Roland Garros level?

At the beginning of Roland Garros’s two-week start we offer a tennis quiz at the cinema.

Sport occupies a major place in our society and this ubiquity is certainly reflected in cinema.

We recently saw basketball player LeBron James who moved legend Michael Jordan into Space Jam 2. In 2017, Margo Robbie put on skates and blinded us on the ice by playing the role of Tonia Harding in I, Tonya. In March last year, Will Smith received the first Oscar for Best Actor for his role in the film The Williams Method, which deals with the childhood and education of Venus and Serena Williams.

But many old films have also remained famous for various sports over the past decades. Boxing, a very cinematic sport, has inspired great directors such as Charlie Chaplin and his hilarious fight in City Lights, Martin Scorsese and his masterpiece Raging Bull, where Robert De Niro played boxer Jack Lamotta, or even the Rocky franchise, directed by Sil. Four parts.

Football was also shown on the big screen by famous film directors. It was John Houston who staged a match during World War II in “Our Victory,” where we saw a team of captives consisting of the icon of Sylvester Stallone, Michael Kane, and PelĂ© confronting German soldiers. Meanwhile, Ken Loach had the opportunity to stage a fiery Eric Cantona in search of Eric. We can also recall the death of the moving Patrick Divar’s referee Jean-Jacques Anne.

And as we approach this huge topic of sports in the cinema, we can approach Vangelis a few days after his death, the composer of the unforgettable chariot music of Hugh Hudson.

But by the time the Roland Garros tournament begins, it is in tennis that we offer to play this quiz in nine films. Take out your best predecessors to try to reach perfection!
