Billie Jean King, Battle of the Sexes Q&A | MoMA FILM



The 1973 tennis match between Billie Jean King and Bobby Riggs was a turning point in the politics of their game. “Battle of the Sexes” is a rousing re-creation of that moment, featuring winning performances from leads Emma Stone and Steve Carell and directed by Valerie Faris and Jonathan Dayton (Little Miss Sunshine).

Each year, MoMA Film combs through major studio releases and the top film festivals in the world to select and screen influential, innovative films made in the past 12 months that we believe will stand the test of time. See what’s playing: http://mo.ma/contenders
