The Battle of the Sexes

On Tuesday, October 24, 2017, I went to see the movie The Battle of the Sexes, featuring Steve Carrell, Emma Stone, Sarah Silverman, Alan Cumming and Austin Stowell.

The movie is based on the real story of female tennis star Billie Jean King as well as male ex tennis star Bobby Riggs, also a hustler, and their famous man vs. woman match.

Billie Jean King isa feminist and a fight for LGBTQ rights.  Though the movie does not focus on that part of her life, they make brief mention to it.  The focus is mainly her match with Bobby Riggs, known as the Battle of the Sexes.
