This film is not really about people of color alone; it is a universal theme for all races. I want to be successful, and i want to be the best of all time. These are very nice, but overly lofty goals. One only sets one's self up for disappointment when we aim too high. It is good to aim high, but a term such as ONE of the best in any field is more than enough of a goal for anyone in any field. This is why gifted children fail so often; they set unrealistic goals which eventually result in disappointment. I am sure audiences will find the film entertaining, but it should not be held up as an example for inspiration; it is merely a daydream.
