Steve James summed America with Hoop Dreams, and in the spirit of hoops, he "proves it" with Stevie. H-O-R-S-E, bitch. The ostensibly contrasting urban and rural settings are proven similarly harrowing. Here, James points his bullshit penetrating camera at the rarely seen underbelly of America. The in-bred hicks and grade school drop outs. An intimate character study of the highest order.

Really fascinating documentary that is as much about James as his former little brother, Stevie. Serves as a blueprint for how to turn a child into an adult monster, quite frankly.

Almost a '90' if it wasn't for the director's baby powder dryness...but his taste is impeccable...

Steve James tears down the wall between filmmaker and subject, creating an intensely honest and revealing study. The movie could have used more judicious editing, however, and occasionally feels very repetitive.
