Three years ago Kensington football coach Ellwood Erb had a vision: to have Friday Night Lights under the El stop at Front and Berks streets. Today, Temple journalism students Max Pulcini and Matt Albasi have visions of their own. The pair have been working tirelessly over eight months to complete a documentary about the Kensington team. “These kids don’t get movies made about them,” Pulcini said. “We allowed for these kids to feel a sense of importance and self-worth. ...That was one of our other goals with this project, making these kids feel important because every kid deserves to feel important.”
