A friend came back from Cannes, where he had seen Match Point, Woody Allen’s latest film. He told me it was one of the best films of the year, if just for the scene where Scarlett Johansson is walking in the rain in a white shirt.
These two pictures, which I have been told are exclusive to CHUD.com, are from that scene. Match Point is actually a damn good picture even beside the white shirt in the rain, but hey, that don’t hurt any.
The images you see here are Scarlett getting it on with Jonathan Rhys-Meyers (Brian Slade!), who happens to be married to her fiancee’s sister. Things, as you can imagine, get complicated from here on in.
Match Point opens at the end of the month. Look for my review at that time.
