The film was released on January 14, 2015, by IFC Films. == Plot == The movie revolves around Toby, a middle-aged ex-dancer now working as a ballet instructor at Juilliard. He is asked for an interview by husband and wife Mike and Lisa, who claim they are preparing a dissertation on the dance community of the 1960s. Through the course of the interview, Mike's questions keep getting more and more personal, until it is revealed that Mike suspects Toby of being his biological father, as indicated by Mike's mother on her deathbed. When Toby denies this, Mike forcefully takes a DNA sample from Toby and rushes to the police lab where his friend Jim performs a DNA test. Lisa is outraged by Mike's violence and decides to stay and help Toby clean up the mess Mike made. She bonds with Toby as a person and Toby reveals that he knows he is Mike's father, but denied it out of shame as he had abandoned him for his career. He also reveals that he paid a part of Mike's tuition fee for college. When Mike returns to take Lisa, the three have an argument and Toby tells Mike to treat his wife well. After further argument, in which Mike tells Toby he chose to make his life so that no one loves him, the pair leave, but Lisa convinces Toby to tell Mike the truth. He then also invites them for brunch the next day. As the pair head to Toby's house the next day, Mike gets a phone call from Jim informing him that the DNA wasn't a match. When Lisa and Mike tell Toby this, Toby has a nervous breakdown, and politely asks them to let him be alone. As the movie ends, Toby is heard calling his friends to take them up on an offer of a dinner party, indicating that he has realised the need to keep his loved ones closer to himself. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Match (film)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
