I checked the Mote@theMovies and found three reviews of Finding Forrester linked, but only the Cllrdr and GJ reviews loaded. I just saw this remarkable movie on an airline flight. I thought that it was a beautifully understated movie about the fear of exposure, the joy of creating, racism, poverty, loyalty. Man, I loved this movie and can hardly wait for my basketball playing son to age a couple of years so that we can watch it together. The movie had such potential to be a sappy, predictable, emotionally manipulative flick and managed to avoid every one of the pitfalls through its understated direction, acting, and writing. A remarkable movie.
Was it made last year? If so, why no Oscar buzz/nominations?
