IBJ movie night: 'Win Win'

March 29, 2011
Back to TopCommentsE-mailPrint

Usually, with these IBJ Movie Nights, I make a selection with high hopes but without first-hand knowledge.

In this case, I attended an earlier screening of this new comedy drama and enthusiastically signed on to offer a screening for IBJ A&E readers.

In it, Paul Giamatti plays a struggling lawyer and part-time wrestling coach whose life gets complicated when he tries to stretch the rules to make life a little easier. I'll leave it at that.

Want to go? Just enter below and name your favorite sports victory. I'll pick winners at random and e-mail you with information on how to download passes.

The screening is April 7 at 7:30 at Keystone Art Cinema. As with all of these, plan to arrive very early (if, of course, you win).

Good luck.

    Winning the IHSAA state championship for baseball back in 1986. The smallest school to ever win a title (before the class )! What a fun time!

    My favorite sports victory was Plymouth High School's defeat of Gary Roosevelt in the Indiana state high school basketball championship of 1982. The game was won on an heroic defensive stop by Ron Sissel and a half-court shot by Scott Skiles at the buzzer.

    Walter Payton's Super Bowl with the Bears. I'm now a Colts fan, but no player deserved a ring more than Walter.

    Has to be a tie with the Colts Superbowl win (watching it with a Bears fan) and the last Kentucky NCAAB championship.

    I was there. It was the experinece of a lifetime. The best was the first one to finish off Ohio State in 1960-1961. OSU lost to UC again to cap the 1961-1962 season.

    The Green Bay Packers Superbowl victory this year over the Pittsburgh Steelers was the best! I am as old as the Superbowl and was in Wisconsin when they won the first superbowl against the Kansas City Chiefs.

    In 1997 my wrestler, Donny Sands, won our school's first ever state title. He defeated the #1 ranked wrestler in the state in his weight, who was unbeaten, in the championship match. I will never forget the feeling.

    When the Colts moved from Baltimore to Indianapolis the city really changed...while it wasn't a contest, the victory was Indianapolis'. So much has changed since then...
