...FINDING FORRESTER TEACHERS’ NOTES Finding Forrester is a film about the inspirational relationship between a street-wise black teenager and a Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist. This study guide is for pupils of GCSE and A level English and Media Studies. The areas of study include starting points for creative writing, writing a critique, what makes great writing, representation and mise en scène. SYNOPSIS He was a vibrant personality who wrote a Pulitzer Prize-winning classic novel four decades ago. And that is the last word heard of William Forrester (Sean Connery). That is until Jamal Wallace (Rob Brown), a brash sixteen-year-old with writing aspirations of his own, cracks the veneer of Forrester’s sheltered existence and re-ignites the dreams of this literary legend in the winter of his life. Known as the neighbourhood recluse, silver-haired Forrester is a man whose mystery and eccentricity border on the mythical. When he discovers that Jamal - a talented African-American scholar-athlete who is recruited by an elite Manhattan school for his brilliance on and off the basketball court - has sneaked into his apartment and left his backpack full of writings behind, they both get something unexpected in return. Forced to look past skin colour and suppositions, Jamal encounters not only his first fan, but a mentor who will challenge and change him forever, and Forrester has his first reason in years to emerge from his self-imposed solitude.

...Secondly Jamal’s relationship with Forrester also grew because they were each able to have a voice and were actually able to talk to each other. No one voice would overpower the other voice it was an equal friendship. Though they did still have some tough moments. As I said in my last paragraph Jamal lashed out on Forrester and it ended up helping their friendship and made the movie even more enjoyable. This movie had real emphasis on a new life and starting over. Jamal had to do that exact thing he had to start a new life at a new school. That is difficult for everyone especially when you’re new school is full of white kids and you’re an African American. It was also a new life for Forrester once he got involved with Jamal it really helped...

...on the road to success, there will be bumps and setback standing in our way. Only through perseverance can we conquer those obstacles that stand in our way. Perseverance is defined by Merriam-Webster dictionary to be: “continued effort to do or achieve something despite difficulties, failure, or opposition.” No matter ones culture or what factors life has thrown your way, perseverance is always the instinctual force that tells the subconscious to never quit. Perseverance through strength and determination can be seen in our countries early foundation. It was perseverance that led to westward expansion for inexpensive land, and leads in an age of manifest density and shaped our country. My favorite quote of perseverance is from Disney's Finding Nemo. Through perseverance the protagonist tries to get his son home and only succeeds because he continually reaffirms himself to “just keep swimming, just keep swimming”. With no way to avoid a challenge, you must continue and learn from the experience to become successful. Perseverance is fighting to be on top and achieve that goal to be number one. Perseverance is coming back from a torn ACL and MCL from playing football and becoming 2012 defenseman of the year award in lacrosse. This was won by me after a huge setback in the fall of my senior year in high school playing football. This injury happened when I was...

...Review of Finding Forrester Brandon 12-1-12 The movie Finding Forrester is about a young sixteen year old African American boy named Jamal Wallace, who one night accepts a challenge from his friends to break into the apartment of a man who they refer to as The Window. It is soon revealed to Jamal that The Window is actually the famous author William Forrester and not only that but Forrester agrees to help Jamal with his writing as long as he never takes anything out of Forrester’s apartment and as long as he never asks Forrester about himself or his family and friends. This is great for Jamal because around the same time, due to his test scores and basketball skills he is accepted into one of the top private schools in New York. However, at the new school Jamal has a whole new set of problems; not only does he have to deal with sharing the spot light with the school’s star basketball player, but he also has to put up with a teacher who insults him and questions his writing abilities because his writing just seems to be too good. The movie was directed by Gus Van Sant and it received 7.2 stars. However, unlike most modern movies that receive a lot of stars this movie did not star any really famous Hollywood actors, for example, Tom Cruise, Tom Hanks, Denzel Washington, or Adam Sandler and it did not include a lot of special effects. The movie also did not vary its locations that much either; about 75% of the movie took place in the school, Forrester’s apartment, or Jamal’s...

It is a neighborhood where others don’t really expect much from them but Jamal prove the contrary he was a very intelligent, bright, and talented young man who had the abilities that many wouldn’t expect from a neighborhood from which he was raise. His talent lied far beyond the basketball court in lied in the love for writing and reading and he truly captivated many with his capabilities. In the movie “Finding Forrester” the meaning of basketball signified many things to me it signify escape, refuge, two separate worlds were life is different this was a sort of world for Jamal were he could bond with his friends and could have a connection between one another but to me it also...

Most of the time it will be two to three hours before the game. Even some times people will just get to the stadium to tailgate and be in the atmosphere of everyone else and not go into the game because they don’t have tickets. Football fans are crazy they will throw parties in the parking lot before and after the games. They also have fans that paint their bodies and stand out in the freezing cold when normal people would be bulled up in cloths. Football Fans are crazy but that is just the...

...As I sat watching “Finding Forrester,” I found myself vacillating between contradictory thoughts and feelings. I felt that I was not supposed to enjoy or appreciate the movie because I have trained myself to question sincerity of a movie about Black life, directed and produced by a very famous White male actor, and in this case one who also plays the leading role in the movie. I am automatically suspicious and, perhaps, offended by a movie in which a White person mentors a Black person. Because of the historical relationship between Blacks and Whites, I programmatically expect to see a movie in which James Earl Jones or Whoopi Goldberg mentor a young White child or adolescent. Despite these thoughts, I found myself totally engaged in the...
