In the late 1980s and early 1990s, they achieved box office success. Two high school basketball players lived a four-year documentary. The public photos of William Gates provide an indicative record of his appearance when he was young and herald a story of "adulthood". The distributor of...

When I think I should get out of myself for a while, it's too correct to watch this one. On the 25th anniversary of the screening, the post-screening producer (also NYU's eh) also talked quite emotionally and learned a lot about the shooting background and gossip (such as how Spike Lee helped the protagonist's family by buying the copyright). Indeed, the background of the American era in the late 1980s and early 1990s is silently behind the two wonderful protagonists. Together with the joys and sorrows of the two families, the sincere depiction of the characters + the sensitive capture of the times together ensure its long-term vitality. In such an environment, the two protagonists are too good, even if their dreams cannot be realized, they will lead them to the light; the dream is the direction that they will instinctively approach even if the surrounding is dark; I feel like I am always being African-American The reason for the film’s attraction is this pure beauty of moving from darkness to light; another feeling is that good children have good mothers. Looking at the eyes of Arthur’s mother looking at him during the interview, I suddenly felt a little bit of my parents’ treatment of me. Pride(?), I still have to live well.

The documentary is the story of two young people with dreams who aspire to become basketball stars. The two characters, with different fates, reflect the influence of this era. The great thing about this film is that when a young man is disappointed, a young man is proud. Pleasure comes with disappointment. Maybe we are watching the NBA and never think about how many people will have to be scrapped on this road when they are dreaming of an internship. It's good to be young, but the hard work made by young people may not be rewarded in a lifetime. The odds of life are so wonderful. In any case, you must continue to stand up and chase your dreams, otherwise how can you escape the slum.
