Description of Pictures: BORG VS MCENROE
Special Features: Opening Night show Dec 1 features post-screening reception sponsored by the Embassy of Sweden
The feature narrative debut from Danish documentarian Janus Metz (ARMADILLO) chronicles the lead-up to the 1980 Wimbledon final between then four-time champ Björn Borg (Sverrir Gudnason) of Sweden and rising American star John McEnroe (Shia LaBeouf). Portrayed by the media as opposites, with Borg cast as the cold-blooded, hyper-disciplined machine versus McEnroe's fiery, temperamental young rebel, the two are revealed to have much more in common than their public personae allow. Metz examines the inner game of high-level sports, where an athlete's competition is as much with himself as with his opponent. Stellan Skarsgård shines as Borg's coach Lennart Bergelin. Opening Night selection, 2017 Toronto Film Festival. DIR Janus Metz; SCR Ronnie Sandahl; PROD Jon Nohrstedt, Fredrik Wikström. Sweden/Denmark/Finland, 2017, color, 107 min. In English, Swedish, French, German and Spanish with English subtitles. NOT RATED
Introductory remarks were provided by:
* Ray Barry, Director of AFI/Silver
* Todd Hitchcock, program director at AFI/Silver
* David O'Sullivan, Ambassador of the European Union to the United States
* Karin Olofsdotter, Ambassador of Sweden to the United States

I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.

2017 photos: Overnight trips this year: Civil War Trust conferences in Pensacola, FL, Chattanooga, TN (via sites in Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Tennessee) and Fredericksburg, VA, a family reunion in The Dells, Wisconsin (via sites in Ohio, Indiana, and Wisconsin), New York City, and my 12th consecutive San Diego Comic Con trip (including sites in Arizona). Ego strokes: For some reason, several of my photos have been published in physical books this year which is pretty cool. Ones that I know about: "Tarzan, Jungle King of Popular Culture" (David Lemmo), "The Great Crusade: A Guide to World War I American Expeditionary Forces Battlefields and Sites" (Stephen T. Powers and Kevin Dennehy), "The American Spirit" (David McCullough), "Civil War Battlefields: Walking the Trails of History" (David T. Gilbert), "The Year I Was Peter the Great: 1956 — Khrushchev, Stalin's Ghost, and a Young American in Russia" (Marvin Kalb), and "The Judge: 26 Machiavellian Lessons" (Ron Collins and David Skover). Equipment this year: I continued to use my Fuji XS-1 cameras but, depending on the event, I also used a Nikon D7000. Number of photos taken this year: just below 560,000.
