Linsanity (2013)

Linsanity: Directed by Evan Jackson Leong. With Daniel Dae Kim, Ming Yao, Pablo Torre, Jeremy Lin. The life story of basketball sensation, Jeremy Lin.

“This story is insane because the phenomena of Linsanity happened despite all of the odds being against it, and this documentary highlights many of those hurdles that didnu0026#39;t get covered by the national press. The story goes way beyond his years at Harvard and dives into the core of Jeremy Lin, which is the foundation of his family and faith. Those two pillars were established in the very early years of his life, even before he picked up a basketball, and were elements that carried him through the low points of his life and helped him push through to the heights that he did achieve.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eu0026quot;Linsanityu0026quot; is a must-watch movie because it highlights the real life struggles that are so often u0026#39;photoshoppedu0026#39; out by some image-conscious PR firms. Jeremy Lin had struggles and he overcame and that was a recurring theme throughout the documentary.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eEven those who are following Jeremyu0026#39;s career now see that pattern playing out as he deals with being benched this season, after being the Houston Rockets starter in 2012-2013.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eYou will come away inspired, there is no doubt about it. Some people may be turned off by the obvious faith in God that Jeremy has, but the director is obviously trying to capture what Jeremy himself felt was key to sparking the Linsanity of 2012.”
