Juwanna Mann
Basketball comedy inspired equally by Tootsie and Dennis Rodman. The bad boy of the Charlotte Beat is cashiered from the league for acting out a Rodman pipe dream: disrobing on court. The only employment he can then find is with a wig and falsies on the city's women's team, the Banshees. (Dolling himself up as a woman is a stunt that Rodman did dare.) No one, unaccountably, recognizes him. But severe myopia, or borderline blindness, is the most benign of the movie's afflictions. Miguel A. Núñez Jr., Vivica A. Fox, Kevin Pollak, Annie Corley; directed by Jesse Vaughan. 2002.
