Special Thanks for Roger Ebert for the following movie review: "White Men Can't Jump: is a movie about black basketball hustlers and a white guy who cons some of them and is conned by the others. But that plot description doesn't begin to do justice to the movie, which is all aout language and time and loyality and betrayal, and is very smart and very funny. The Movie takes place on the asphalt outdoor basketball courts of Los Angeles - on Venice Beach, in Crenshaw neighborhood, in Watts and wherever else money is wagered on the outcome of the game. It stars Wesley Snipes as a black basketball hustler whose other jobs are suffering because of the downturn in the economy, and Woody Harrelson as a white guy from out of towm who uses his goofy look to lure victims into betting on his game. Neither one of these guys hustles basketball purely for the enjoyment of the game. Snipes does it to make money and Harrelson does it at least partly because he's a compulsive gambler........Here is a comedy of great high spirits, with an undercurrent of sadness and sweetness that makes it a lot better than the plot itself could possibly suggest.
