White Men Can't Jump (Ron Shelton, 1992)
062 - It turns out 1992 was a massive year for basketball. The Dream Team lit up the small screen as they made their debut at the Barcelona Olympics, while Woody and Wesley lit up the big screen with White Men Can't Jump. To say this movie had an influence on us growing up is an understatement; the street ball, the fashion, the trash talk, and Rosie Perez, all impacted us in profound (yet slightly varying) ways. So join us as we dive deep into the whole damn thing - exploring the film's backstory (including some questionable pre-casties), soundtrack, the careers of our 3 leads, and how the film holds up in 2020. Added bonus: we also crack the code on what the ideal film project would be for Woody and Wesley reunion.
