This review is for a different format. EXCELLENT
Sanaa Lathan hasn't been around long, like some of these actresses; and she has already made a name for herself. In this film, her character is the best because she had so much ambition and dtermination to become a basketball star. Omar and Lathan love scenes become more dramatic when they finally come together as a couple. Debbi Morgan with those deep dimples, was good. I remember watching her on the Young and the Restless.

A celebration of the life of Tejano princess Selena Quintanilla Perez, the rising star who was gunned down by the president of her own fan club in 1995. Amid the racial tensions and economic hardships of 1980's South Texas, the daughter of a Mexican immigrant (himself a failed doo-wop singer) grows up to be a sensation in the blossoming Tejano scene before meeting a tragic end. Light on insight, this biopic revels rather in Selena's on-stage achievements. Selena's father is credited as an executive producer to the film.
