Summary and analysis
The movie is about a college basketball team,Richmond and its coach, Carter. Richmond was a very bad team which only won 4 game last year. This year, the team has a new coach, Carter. At the first day, Carter require the crew to sign the contract. The contract requires them to get GPA of 2.3. which mean they only need 934 of SAT score. The purpose is to let the crew have the chance to go to college because most of student in Richmond can not go to college and some of them will go to jail or dead in 16-24. The team trained very and then they win 16 games without losing anyone of them. After they won the tourmant, Carter know the crew is lazy and not going to class so that Carter lock the gym and force the crew to study. During their study time, they give up 2 game. The community think Carter should let them play the game and unlock the gym. When Carte want to quit, the crew keep on study and they finally get the GPA 2.3.
The story told us that the community only want to have the honor but they never think about the furture of those student. Coach Carter want to make every crew not only thinks about their game but also their furture.
Relation to case
The crew do not go to the class and Mei do the same thing. The crew do not get a good grade due to missing classes and Mei also.
Reaction to film
I think the problem of the Team Richmond is also a problem all oer the world. The sociaity only looking for someone's success but they never think about how and why they success and what is their furture. The film and the case study also show me that if I want the get better grade, i need to go to the class and study after class.
