I love how, even to this day, it's so easy to find people discussing the metaphors in Challengers; what the ending means, what happened after the match, etc. Like, it's been two years since these shitty men hugged each other after the match and this shitty woman cheered after seeing them finally giving all of themselves to the thrill of tennis, and people are STILL discussing what all of their trajectories and personal interests could possibly mean. It is refreshing to see how much effort was put into Challengers, but also how much effort the FANS are putting into creating their own interpretations—it's sex, manipulation, ambition, a fight for power, struggle, desperation. I'm enamoured with everything going on in and outside of this movie.
