Jumping for Joy (2002)
Awesome Movie
I really liked this movie. It helps people look at the oppression put on others because of gender. I thought the movie was of HIGH "Hollywood" type quality and would pay money to see this type of movie in theaters. It also shows perseverance and how to handle people who tell you NO! This is a GREAT family movie and most of my family has seen it and loves it. The story starts out as a young middle school aged girl who tries to get into the school basketball program, but finds resistance because it is said to be a "Man's" sport. It shows the struggles of the parents, the young girl "Bobbie Dean", the school officials, and the boys at the school and on other teams. I especially like how the parents play a supportive role. They are willing to totally support their daughter through this hard and sometimes embarrassing time.
