Hoop Dreams

One of the Best Documentaries Ever Made

If you stick with it, this is an engaging and emotionally-involving documentary. (I say stick with it because the movie is about three hours long.) The film raises a lot of interesting questions about poverty and education, as well as the recruitment and training processes of student athletes. It is also a strong reminder of how small the percentage is of student athletes who actually turn pro and how life moves on after their sports glory days come and go. One of the best documentaries ever made, hands down.
