We watched an ESPN documentary about Picabo Street in class today. It was a fairly rudimentary documentary. While we watched I got some cool ideas for the feature aspect of our own production.
First off, I think it would be great to emphasize how Picabo got into partying and got kicked off the US Ski Team. I think some intense workout scenes in Hawaii would be fantastic too, as kind of her turning point.
I'd also like to make it clear how people were often annoyed by her because of her cockiness.
Her major injury in 1998 would be another plot point where she loses her "tiger." She's not fearless anymore.
I think the winding down theme of the film should be "There is success in doing your best." That way our feature-documentary has some sense of a resolution at the end.
