What Love & Basketball Is About
A girl and a boy growing up next door to each other both want to play basketball professionally. The film is divided into four parts, each named like a quarter. Its real subject is inequality: the road is open for him, while she meets another obstacle at every stage and the women's leagues offer something entirely different. The film builds the relationship on that gap too; neither makes the other's career easier. It is Gina Prince-Bythewood's first film, with Sanaa Lathan and Omar Epps. Who it's for: those who like sport and relationship drama together. Who it's not for: viewers expecting a classical romantic comedy; the film never makes the relationship easy.
