Bend It Like Beckham - Available at BSC Library
Even if you missed last night's showing of the movie, Bend It Like Beckham, you can still see the movie. It is available at the BSC Library (Media PN 1997.2 .B45 2003).
In the film, the parents of eighteen year-old Jesminder (Parminder Nagra) want her to be a nice, conventional Indian girl, but Jess wants to play soccer like her hero, David Beckham. For Jess, that means kicking a ball around the local park with the lads until she’s spotted by Jules (Keira Knightley), who invites her to join the local women’s team.
Check it out!
