Don't Nobody Love the Game More Than Me

"New Yorker Martha Pinson's rhythmically dancing basketball tale...beautifully captures humanity's real hero, the spirit who refuses to give up trying, even in the face of ridicule. A movie that will surely inspire anyone who has ever dreamed and has never ceased to keep dreaming! --Best Movie & Best Editing, Toronto Online Film Festival, 2002. Best Short - Westchester FF, 2004

I believe you, hoopdreams; watched your video.

[mvspinson]

That's at the Big Park in Baruch Housing, LES, just North of the Williamsburgh Bridge. It was a few years ago, before the City put up new fences and walls.

And the music was composed and recorded in Poland. I knew the composer, Basil Wajdowicz, from New York but he was there at the time. Search him on YouTube and you can hear some outrageous jazz piano.

This is very well done....I'm a film student and so I know a thing of two of what it takes to make a short film. Loved the script

[mvspinson]

Yeah, I loved the script too. A critic called it "the most lyrical trash talk you've ever heard." You can make a good film from a bad script but it's really hard, eh?

[bicerepriza]

Awesome! I'm from Serbia and we do a lot of trash talk too...

I wish I can play street hoops in NY shit I'm too far ...

ONE LOVE

[mvspinson]
