Hoop Dreams: A True Story of Hardship and Triumph

It was a good movie, and neither the back cover or the above explanation or Charles Barkley's introduction does the theme justice. The movie's theme was about there being more to life than sports, and that's what some people (and those that follow a similar story, "Friday Night Lights"), don't seem to get. William Gates went to Moody Bible College and is now a pastor and Arthur Agee heads a foundation for youth, the internet is silent as to how Agee earns a living.
