Hoop Dreams (Criterion Collection)

swooshdad from Jackson, KY, May 9, 2007

Real. A gem. Things that come together in this film cannot be matched by any Hollywood contrivance for entertainment value. The commentary by William and Arthur are invaluable. I can't imagine buying the film as a product without it. I bought it for my kid who dreams of being in the NBA and loves and plays ball constantly. Helps impressionable kids see the real side of the action. Just a great movie by any standards. A classic.
