"Jim Carlo completed his'Basketball Diary' at the age of 17; he published 3 famous poems and recorded 4 albums at the age of 22; now, Jim Carlo lives in New York City and continues to write; he is now A beloved poet, musician, novelist and actor."

When a line of character prototype introductions appear at the end of a biographical movie, they always smile unconsciously: the depraved boy in the movie crying and begging for money from his mother at home, robbing old grandmothers and hunting candy stores, selling gay men for drugs, fighting I have never done anything about fighting, stealing, robbing and cheating, but what is more worth thinking about is his poet’s dream of basketball: lying naked on the roof, feeling the touch of the breeze, enjoying the pleasure of being away from the hustle and bustle of the city, and describing everything around him with graceful sentences in his diary. Every thing personally, insist on visiting the good brother who has leukemia, even if the other players have never visited, splashing sweat on the court and emitting light, seeing the good brother who has not fallen on the TV, the light in the eyes...

There are too many degenerate teenagers on the streets of the United States. This group of people will always appear in different movies. Jim is exactly what he has in mind. Unlike others, he can only use drugs to help him out of the dark. All teenagers have days of rebellion and craziness. The question is whether they can keep the place in their heart that can ferment their dreams, so that they can still see the eyes of hope when they wake up completely.

    If you guessed it correctly, this is a living biographical film of a drug propaganda film. The acting skills of Xiao Lizi are indeed powerful and almost surpass that of actors of the same age. The film appears in the form of a biography and ends with this. The whole film focuses on describing the dangers of drugs from the fall to the rescue. The place is more metaphorical to the dark corner of that area at that time

    Xiao Lai has been very good at acting since he was a child. He is not pretentious, he is just that child, his body and mind are all children in the play. Look how important and serious it is to make friends. Drugs, I believe, must be too tempting, but don't touch them, because the consequences are devastating.

The Basketball Diaries quotes

  • Jim Carroll: I just wanna be pure, I just wanna be pure.

  • Jim Carroll: You're growing up. And rain sort of remains on the branches of a tree that will someday rule the Earth. And it's good that there is rain. It clears the month of your sorry rainbow expressions, and it clears the streets of the silent armies... so we can dance.
