Your Wildest Dreams Come TrueMy Wildest Dreams Come TrueI have always been the type to see something on TV and think it would be a great idea to try and recreate it. One of my favorite movies as an adolescent was Napoleon Dynamite. My friends and I watched it over and over and always found something to laugh about. We imitated lines from the movie and tried our best impersonations of the characters. One of my favorite scenes in that movie is when Kip sees the Rex Taekwondo commercial and asks Napoleon if he will give a ride to the dojo and see what it is all about. Napoleon does not drive; he rides a bike. So how did Napoleon give his brother a ride to Rex’s taekwondo class? He attached a string to the back of his bike. Kip then held on to the string, wearing rollerblades, as Napoleon rode his bike to the dojo. This five second scene inspired two brave children. My neighbor McKenzie and I set out to recreate this beautiful masterpiece.
