Bend It Like Beckham Style: Comedy Release Date: Jul 01 Review for "Bend it like Beckham" C:Parminder Nagra, Keira Knightley, Jonathan Rhys-Meyers. Directed by: Gurinder Chadra In the tradition of "East is East" and "Monsoon Wedding", the British filmakers have once again based a comedy on the lifestyle of first and second generation Asians living in England with Gurinder Chandra's "Bend it like Beckham." Like its predeccesors, 'Beckham' is extremely funny and at times very hartwarming. It is very well directed by Chadra, who agrees that the film is semi-autobiographical, and unlike many other films about football, the football scenes are actually quite realistic. The acting is also quite impressive from a relatively unknown cast, which includes former All-Saints stalwart Shaznay Lewis in a supporting role, and BBC pundits Gary Lineker, John Motson, Alan Hansen and John Barnes making cameos. Unfortunately ladies no, David Beckham is not in this film. but don't fret because...
