{Hoop Dreams} [FINAL]
The film is about two African American boys names William Gates, and Arthur Agee.
This documentary shows their passion for basketball and how they struggled getting through school with a good GPA. This took place in Westchester Illinois, which is said to not be a very safe city.
William suffered through knee injuries through out his life which made it very difficult for him to live up to his dream of being an NBA star. Arthur had major family problems because his dad was on drugs for a short period of time and got sent to jail, which probably had a big effect on Arthur. They were both born in a poor neighborhood and went to a school with a poor education, but then went to a better one later on. They had a hard life growing up and still managed to get by school with time and effort.
William Gates barley graduated but actually did and became a pastor. Arthur Agee who also struggled through school became a person who helps kids make the right choices in life and not fall into a bad situation. They both still play basketball for fun because they still have a passion for it. In the end they grew up and had a decent life.

{Persepolis}
A cartoon film about a woman's life as a child and up. It takes place in Iran. It was showing events in this woman's life, it may be dark at times but it can be quite humorous.
She was born in an Iran family where life was actually pretty good. her Uncle got imprisoned for life and died in jail. It shown how she grew from a young child to a grown woman in a very challenging life style. its a pretty good animation.

{Run Lola Run}
This movie is about a strong girl who is trying to help her boyfriend out. He gets himself in trouble when he loses the money needed for his special "job". It is up to Lola to run a very long way for him and help him out.
This movie obviously revolved around time and fate. It showed some of the civilian's fates as she ran past them. This movie takes place in Germany and was made very well.
I liked the movie and the equality between the genders. Lola is very tough and must of been really fit to run that long and far. Their are 3 different endings in the movie, it went through every single ending and repeated certain parts with different outcomes. This movie was pretty good I recommend others to watch it especially for people that want to see something unique.

{No one knows about persian cats}
Its a movie that takes place in Iran. It was filmed to show how strict the government in Iran is about music making. Its a very inspiring movie.
I actually like The Indie Rock they made. I actually understood what the songs were about and they were preformed pretty well. I actually thought the movie was quite decent. I honestly really disagree with the law about music I believe anyone should express their feelings with any kind of art or music.
Im going to have to say the movie may of been kind of slow and boring at times but the ending was quite sad. The music is whats worth it. Indie Rock is actually pretty cool.
