Review of Hoop Dreams (1994) by Alister N — 06 Oct 2008
Gaining unfettered access to two youths who dream of making it all the way to the NBA, truly epic doco making as over the course of three engaging hours it follows four years in the twos' ups and downs.
It's about so much more than basketball, acting like a microcosm for the American dream that touches on family, racial politics, drama and of course reality. So powerful it changed the rules for Oscar Doco nominations.
