i can stream any of these vaguely sporty films tonight @ 11:
a cause d'un garcon (swimmer gets outed to the whole school by the mysterious&sophisticated new kid) french
bend it like beckham (flawless, no description necessary) english w/ some punjabi&hindi
eleven men out (i've never actually watched this one but it's something about a gay football team) icelandic but dubbed in spanish or smth idek what's going on here tbh
fit (a bunch of teenagers are on their last warning at school and have to join the new dance&drama group or else get kicked out of school) hilariously bad bc it was made to be shown in schools to teach kids homo/transphobia is not ok. i love it anyway. english
formula 17 (a student goes to stay with his friend in taipei after a terrible internet meet-up and said friend is horrified to discover he is still a virgin) this isn't sports really but there's some swimming at the beginning and the main character works at a gym so it totally counts, shut up. + cece is flawless in this <3333 taiwanese
i love you baby (BASED ON A TRUE STORY! KIND OF! a man gets a head injury during a karaoke night and wakes up straight. so his boyfriend dresses in drag and pretends to be a woman in an attempt to save their relationship. it doesn't really work) spanish (singing karaoke counts as a sport imo)
juste une question d'amour (a student of horticulture (gardening counts as a sport ok!) goes on a work experience placement and falls for his boss) french
kick off (gay football team plays straight team, str8 team doesn't know they're gay so they pretend to be str8) THIS IS A "SO BAD IT'S GOOD" FILM except it's really really bad. english
maenner wie wir (gay goalie gets kicked off his local team, starts his own gay team to get VENGEANCE!!!) german
mannen som elsket yngve (set just after the fall of the wall, ginger loser jarle is attempting to be an anarchist bc THE WORLD SUCKS!!!! but then he falls in love with the weird tennis-playing new kid who does his homework and listens to preppy music and helps his mom around the house. whoops.) norwegian & the sequel jeg reiser alene (jarle ends up with a daughter from that drunken&misguided one night stand he had the night he fucked things up with yngve. whoops again.) norwegian
newcastle (australian surfing film which i haven't actually seen but apparently it's quite sweet?) english
i think i have english subs for all of them btw!
