    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      When Woody Harrelson was making this movie, the producers hired Bob Lanier, the retired Detroit Pistons' center, as a basketball coach. Harrelson, who had played some basketball in college, was bragging to Lanier about what a great player he was. Lanier invited Harrelson to play a little one-on-one. Harrelson later described it as "the most embarrassing fifteen minutes of my life."
    • Goofs
      Before the second hustle game in Watts, Sidney declares the game to be "make it take it", meaning a team retains possession of the ball after scoring a basket. However, after Billy makes the first shot of the game, their opponents (Robert and Zeke) take possession of the ball.
    • Quotes

      Sidney Deane: [to Junior, after losing his borrowed money to Billy in a shooting challenge on the Venice Beach basketball courts] Oh man shut your anorexic malnutrition tapeworm-having overdose on Dick Gregory Bahamian diet-drinking ass up. Leave me alone!

    • Crazy credits
      In the opening credits, we can hear the classical 20th Century Fox Fanfare in a hip hop style.
    • Alternate versions
      Some U.S. video versions are three minutes longer.
    • Connections
      Featured in The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson: Woody Harrelson/Blake Clark/Cathy Guisewite (1992)
    • Soundtracks

      Written by Duke Ellington, Barney Bigard and Irving Mills

    Greed and Basketball. How Can You Not Like This Film?
    Wesley Snipes and Woody Harrelson team up on the playgrounds of L.A. to hustle all comers. The direction is sharp and the cinematography is surprisingly impressive as the mean streets of Los Angeles are caught with striking camera shots. The under-rated screenplay is intelligent, focused, and clever. All in all "White Men Can't Jump" is far from being a classic, but it is still a fine film that is better than many think. 4 stars out of 5.
