Basketball, Christianity, Hard Work Builds Character, Error and Redemption, The Three R’s, Boy Meets Girl, David Meets Goliath - and mythologies that tell more about yourself than you intend.
We watched Hoosiers for the first time the other night, too. It was exactly as you describe. Superficial and glossy. However I kind of liked it, maybe because I’m full of rage and confusion over what our country is turning into. So I took it in as a break from America the Brutal. And in my head, as a woman, I hear Linda Ronstadt singing “When Will I Be Loved” and a little voice asking When will I be seen?
You’re an elegant writer Chris. Thank you for this. Now I’ll think more deeply about that shallow movie 😂
