Kobe Bryant: Beyond the Glory

This documentary on Kobe Bryant was very informative on the hall of fame basketball players life. Kobe endured many struggles growing up. He was always seen as an outsider. In Italy he was an outsider because he was the only American and more importantly the only black person in his school. He then went back to American and was an outsider because he was the only person in the school from Italy. Finally when he was in the NBA he was so much younger than his teammates which created awkwardness. This isolationism with the people around him gave him a lot of time to work on his craft. This gave him the opportunity to be the player he is today. The movie goes up to the 2002 season, in the middle of their 3 peat run and is very informative to viewers on how Kobe became the player and competitor he is today.
