Finding Forrester is a 2000 movie, written by Mike Rich and directed by Gus Van Sant, about a teenager, Jamal Wallace, played by Rob Brown, who is accepted into a prestigious private high school. He also befriends a reclusive writer, William Forrester, played by Sean Connery.
Anna Paquin, F. Murray Abraham and Busta Rhymes also star in supporting roles. Joey Buttafuoco makes a brief cameo appearance. Principal photography was shot entirely in Manhattan , the Bronx, and Brooklyn (many Mailor Academy scenes were filmed at Regis High School on the Upper East Side of Manhattan), with some scenery and pick-up shots made in suburban Toronto, Ontario, during post-production. The Region 1 DVD includes a documentary entitled "Behind the Scenes: Finding Forrester".
Forrester is partly based on J.D. Salinger.

Apparently telling Gael Greene she was like the Sean Connery to my black kid in Finding Forrester was not amusing.
