Hoop Dreams
USA 1994, 172 minutes
Dir. Steve James
Rating: [M]
Genres: Documentary
Topics: Sport.
Aroview: Chronicles the 8-year saga of two black teenagers striving for basketball glory in the NBA. Like the British 7/14UP series, this captures life's longterm stresses with rare candour, but a narrower focus. Exploring the complex connections between family, race, sport and commerce, this is a lengthy but riveting outing.

5 stars (Exceptional) A doco that takes you on a journey of hope and ambition like no other. It's impossible not to become emotionally vested in the lives of these two disavantaged teens. No.1 on Spurlocks Top50DocosToSeeBeforeYouDie for a good reason! ~GenXGirl
3 stars (Good Enough) A bit long for a non basketball fan but as a documentary it is commendable. ~Tubbs
