This one almost escaped us. From the brilliant Gus Van Sant film, “Finding Forrester” we have a film about friendship when a reclusive writer Sean Connery) befriends an inner city kid (Rob Brown) who is adept at poetry as he is in Basketball.
Jamal Wallace (Brown) has a chance to receive a full scholarship based on both his academics and hoops skills and through his new friendship with Forrester (Connery) they learn from each other. Realistically, Basketball plays a small role here, but this is a great film to watch.
