Is there a Napoleon Dynamite in you? Print E-mail
Written by Tracy Carson

In case you haven't seen it, Napoleon Dynamite is the hit movie about a listless and alienated teenager who decides to help his new friend win the class presidency in their small western high school, while dealing with his bizarre family life back home.

The movie plays out very well and leaves the viewer feeling as though the underdog truly has a chance.

The question we must ask ourselves is this "Is there a Napoleon Dynamite in me"? Napoleon was willing to take a risk and do something with the hand that he was dealt.

One of the most enduring scenes in the movie is:

Napoleon Dynamite : So, we're pretty much friends by now, right?

Pedro : Yes.

Napoleon Dynamite : So, you got my back and everything, right?

Pedro : What?

We have been dealt a whole new hand with statewide video franchising.

Don't make us have to ask you if you have our back.
