finding forrester

 I watched a movie called “Finding Forrester” by Gus Van Sant he is a well know director. In the film “Finding Forrester”, the director is showing as how Jamaal Wallace was facing several kinds of changes and problems, while Jamaal was a black teenage who was sixteen years old. Jamaal was dealing different problem in his life that time when the director made this film, to show us the difficult circumstance of black men in America. At that time Jamaal was facing discrimination in school and out side the school. Jamaal plays basketball with his friends and also he shows them how smart he is by working hard. Although, his grade in the class were just average, but his test scores went very well that shows you Jamaal is trying to achieve his dream and become a better person. From his effort Jamaal and his classmate were tested, therefore, Jamaal passed the test and went to a private school.  The scene that I like in the movie was when Jamal comes to a white guy who had BMW, Jamaal asked several questions the white guy about the BMW. The white guy said, “ this car is a BMW, it’s not just a car”. This white man thinks that he was smart when Jamaal asked the white man who made this car and it when was the first time, he couldn’t answer. That shows us to not think that you are the smart one.  Last but not least, it shows me that in my life or someone’s life, we should not think that we are the braves once while maybe we are the losers.
