The film "Coach Carter": actors, roles and plot
Sometimes, in order to succeed in something, it is necessary to change a lot: the attitude towards others, the manner of behavior, to give up some of the usual things and completely surrender to the goal. This opinion seems to adhere to the protagonist of the film "Coach Carter", the actors, roles and the plot of which will be discussed in this article.
From students to students
The Richmond High School basketball team has already forgotten when the last time they won. No, there is enough talented players who feel confident on the field. Only, unfortunately, it's still just a bunch of violent teenagers. But everything can change when there is a coach capable of fully revealing their potential.
Real story
His film ("Coach Carter"), directed by Thomas Carter, was based on a very real story that happened in Richmond in 1999. Then coach Carter for poor performance closed access to the gym has never lost the team. Because of this, important games were missed. This decision caused a flood of negative criticism from the parents of the students. But all the same, the hall was opened only when the laggards pulled up their studies.
"Coach Carter": actors who played the team Richmond Oilers
It is worth noting that the city of Richmond, in which the events take place, at that time was not the most peaceful place. In such circumstances, children simply could not grow up intellectuals. So it's silly to blame the team for their rampage and disobedience. But you should put a monument to someone who has set out to blind people who deserve to continue studying in college. And that person was Mr. Carter.
True, not all players were initially hopeless. For example, Carter's son, Damian Carter, played by Robert Ri Chard (House of Wax Figures, Kindle, Vampire Diaries, etc.) is clearly not from the "league of rebels". For this he dropped out of the prestigious school, but for the Richmond team was a valuable acquisition, so he was quietly received.
And another player, Kenon Stone, played by Rob Brown ("Find Forrester", "Express", etc.), having nothing in common with the criminal world, also found himself in a difficult situation, at least for him. Learning that his girlfriend is pregnant, the guy could not understand whether he should enjoy it or not. After all, he is still a schoolboy and imagines a family in which he will already be successful and will not have to earn extra money on three jobs. In any case, he will have to make some choice.
Actors shot about in the movie "Coach Carter", about which it was not heard before. We are talking about Channing Teitume ("Step Forward", "Cobra Roll", "The Ghoulish Eight", etc.), which won the role of Jason Lyle - the only "white" member of the team. He is now a star, and earlier could count only on the role in the episode of the series "Crime scene".
Also important
Another movie "Coach Carter" is nice to watch because of the background music provided mainly by rap artists. And what other genre is suitable for such a game as basketball? The most popular of the groups represented are The Black Eyed Peas, Ak`Sent, Akon, Kanye West, Mack 10, DMX, etc. Under their beats, though, grab the ball and run to the basketball field.
Another game
In general, the project "Coach Carter" was a good one. Actors, music and even history are of interest. At least because the plot is based on real events. In general, it's fun to watch Carter's attempts to re-educate difficult teenagers when almost everything is against his methods. But the guys are not easy, because they have an important game ahead of them with the strongest team in the state of California.
