Jamal Wallace
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.
The Bullet Points:
Movie Appeared:
Finding Forrester (2000)
Actor:
Rob Brown
Why You Should Vote For Him:
This is a great reminder (for all of us) that Basketball, and sports in general is not the be all and end all.
Why You Should Not Vote For Him:
If we go by what we saw on the court, his key athletic scene is missing two free throws.
