THE BATTLE OF THE SEXES In 1973, the tennis match between women's World #1 Billie Jean King and ex-men's-champ and serial hustler Bobby Riggs was billed as the Battle of the Sexes and became one of the most watched televised sports events of all time, reaching 90 million viewers around the world. As the rivalry between King and Riggs kicked into high gear, off-court each was fighting more personal and complex battles. Together, Billie and Bobby served up a cultural spectacle that resonated far beyond the tennis court, sparking discussions in bedrooms and boardrooms that continue to reverberate today. Battle of the Sexes turns real-life events into a crowd-pleasing, insightful and suspenseful dramedy that ably entertains and features tremendous performances by Emma Stone and Steve Carell. Rated PG (course lang.) 2hrs
