Ping Pong
Dir: Hugh Hartford, Anson Hartford

****
A lovely uplifting film about a group of elderly competitors taking part in the over 80s Table Tennis Championships in China. Every review I've read of this film starts with a condescending remark and goes down-hill from there so I'm not going to start. Treating the elderly like children is a pet hate of mine. It is what it is and I enjoyed it very much. It is impressive and the people featured are all lovely. Recommended.
