She's fallen out of love, been chased, been arrested - all before lunch and things are only just . . . Warming Up
1985 · 1h 34m · N/A Comedy, Romance
Overview
When a group of macho footballers who haven't won a match in two years take on a private coach and start winning, the team have only one problem. They don't want anyone to know that their coach is the town's newly-arrived ballet teacher. Juliet has come in search of a new life with her young son and finds the place less sympathetic than she had bargained for. This lively comedy takes the lid off Australia's macho image and discovers that it's not quite as tough as it likes to imagine.
