hoops dream

I completely agree with Alexis. I feel like Hooks over analyzes black films all together. It seems like there isn't one acceptable Black Cinema film in her eyes. She's way too critical and I think that causes her to over look some of the good attributes of films. She liked some things in "hoop dreams" but with every compliment came a complaint. I think that this was a well portrayed film of the men (black in this case) who had an extreme love and dedication for the sport of basketball. I really didn't see any fault in this film, but maybe I just don't think critically enough.
