Summary
Directed by Ron Shelton, White Men Can't Jump is a buddy comedy-drama that subverts racial stereotypes through its titular phrase, popularized in the film. The movie uses basketball games on the streets of Los Angeles as a backdrop for exploring themes of male friendship, racial segregation, and personal growth. Despite its comedic tone, it also touches on serious issues like gambling debts leading to violence and the struggles of working-class people trying to make ends meet.
