Anecdotes
Several of the actors are real-life cowboys of North Philly.

Gaffes
When you first see Cole he is sitting down outside the principal's office with his hands handcuffed behind him and by himself with no authority figure with him. Additionally, he was not tethered to a pole or anything. This is highly unusual. A handcuffed student would not be left outside of a room unintended, especially in a situation where they can easily get up and leave.

These are real Urban Cowboys

It is hard not to like or respect the work of Lee Daniels. This coming of age story coupled with the reality of urban blight facing the coming gentrification has all the elements of great filmmaking. It's good to see Idris Elba taking roles that allow the world to see him light years away from his London accent and roots. New star Caleb Mclaughlin gives us more than just a troubled young man coming into maturity and gaining respect for his father and a new perspective on life.. The fact that this is based on real characters in a little known tale about Cowboys in modern day Philadelphia is even more amazing. . If you're looking for a happy ending this may not be for you. But if you're looking for a well produced, directed, written, and edited film don't pass this by.
