Brian Banks, the subject of this movie, went to Long Beach Poly High School and was a part of the prestigious Jackrabbit football team. Brian was also a part of the team that played against De La Salle. This game was featured in the movie When the Game Stands Tall (2014).
This movie is Tom Shadyac return to directing after 8 years.
Even though the film is set in Long Beach, California, it was filmed in Memphis, Tenn. Director Tom Shadyac teaches film at the University of Memphis, and in 2018, he opened a climbing gym and community center in the Soulsville neighborhood of South Memphis. Shadyac's family has a long-running history of leadership at St. Jude's Hospital in Memphis, founded by Danny Thomas, who was a family friend of the Shadyacs.
Tom Shadyac and Morgan Freeman previously worked together on Bruce Almighty (2003) and Evan Almighty (2007).
Famed Memphis educator Tracey Sadlak can be plainly seen in a game crowd scene. She has hair so it is obviously before her bout with cancer.
"Jerome Johnson: Two men look out from prison bars, one saw mud, the other the stars. Perspective, gentlemen. Perspective is the key to how one fares in life."
"Justin Brooks: Brian, I want to help you. I do. And in a perfect world you and I would just waltz into the court, you tell them what Shayla said and they'd reopen your case. But that is not the world we live in. The system is broken. It's what I'm trying to tell you. It just doesn't care. Brian Banks: I'm just suppose to accept that? That the system is broken? You know what I say to that? Fuck the system. No, for real, man. Why can't we at least try? What is the system? It's people. yeah, It's cops, lawyers, judges. If one of them ha just cared enough to even go down that hallway Kennisha said I dragged her, listened to how the tiniest little noise echoes, I wouldn't have this damn thing on my leg... Mr. Brook. Justin Brooks: Justin... Brian Banks: Justin. I know the system doesn't care about me. I've known that my whole life. The question is, do you?"
