Recensione di shannon-d32

I saw this movie at a preview in St. Louis years and years ago and can't stop thinking about it.

I had no expectations going in (as I was given three free passes) as I took my teenage daughter and her friend. Learning about the subject matter, I was quite anxious how it would be shown and frankly I thought it was done very well. All the race relations - it made me humbler.

First of all everyone has gone to High School with a Julian and Perry. Those independent guys who are cute, refreshing & fun to be around but not cool to date or be seen with. And the further removed from high school you are, you look back and wonder why? The acting by Dante Basco was outstanding (I had no clue who Dante was - I have since watched Dance With Me). I can't remember a film that I was so drawn in by the main character.

I've always told friends for me the mark of a good movie is the character actors and their performances. They all deliver in this movie. I'm not going to go overboard and say its the best movie the decade to me, but it is one that I would recommend. Its rare I go to a preview and actually want to go see it again.
