About this product

Product Information

Based on the autobiographical journals of poet Jim Carroll, BASKETBALL DIARIES follows the descent of a Catholic high school student from star basketball player to drug addict. Jim (Leonardo DiCaprio) and his friends roam the streets of New York City as goof-offs, petty thieves, and junkies. Expelled from school for using drugs before a game, Jim is also thrown out of his house and takes up street hustling. A pre-superstardom DiCaprio gives a strong performance in this gritty and uncompromising look at being young and streetwise.

  • Another Personal Favorite!! Based on a True Account!!

    This has all the ingredients of an awesome movie in my book!! Beautifully Casted, Well Written, Expertly laid out and based on true events!! This kept me glued to the screen from start to finish! We watch a Group of boys fall hard from a promising future down into the depths of evil & drugs where only the lucky get a chance to fight there way out and back on track. This has real lessons to teach those of us on the same track or possibly for those tempted to experience what initially appears fun. I recommend every parent to watch this with their teens! It is fulls of lessons without coming across as being a life lesson movie!!

  • Title will catch the young peoples attention.

    Great movie to show your teenage children especially if they know someone that is around them that may be doing any type of drugs.

  • Boring and unrealistic

    What is it about Leonardo DiCaprio? The guy is just a crappy actor. I first heard about this movie from a friend of mine, who read the book. Leonardo DC was just too young to play this part. I don't know how old Jim Carroll was when he wrote the book, or experienced the terrible things he did, but this just didn't work in the least. Terrible dialogue and acting all around; Leonardo DC was just whiny, and even more awful was Mark Whalberg as his friend: TERRIBLE "New Yawk" accent; I don't know if he was trying too hard or not trying at all. Don't waste your time and money. Maybe the book is better.
