A Svengali of the tennis world gets his close-up in the diabolically well-titled Love Means Zero, an on-its-toes documentary about the legendary and/or notorious tennis teacher and coach Nick Bollettieri.

As a piece of tennis lore, "Love Means Zero" is absolutely vital. As a character study about a professional tyrant, it's almost as frail and leathery as Bollettieri himself.

Rated: B-

So much more than just an archival-heavy career spanning retrospective of the coach's continuously alienating habit of cutting all emotional cords and merely moving on when new potential offers itself up.

Hammer to Nail

By the end ... Kohn cracks the faade of surface bonhomie, and is able to probe the depths of Bolletieri's regret. It's a remarkable achievement, and a damn fine movie.
