Cuba Gooding, Jr. had moderate success in Hollywood until "Jerry Maguire", for which he won a well deserved Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. In many ways, his character, Rod Tidwell, was able to speak for him as he screamed, "Show me the money!" His stock in Hollywood soared, and he got solid roles in "What Dreams May Come", "Men of Honor", Pearl Harbor", "Radio", and many other films. .

For your consideration is the yellow sweater worn by Cuba as the character Albert in the visually stunning film, "What Dreams May Come". The year after Cuba Gooding, Jr. won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor, that honor fell to Robin Williams for "Good Will Hunting." The year after that, this unlikely duo was paired up as co-stars in one of the most visually beautiful films ever made: "What Dreams May Come". This sweater was part of a complete outfit worn by Gooding as Albert during nearly all the scenes which took place in heaven. The complete ensemble was in shades of yellow and creme. This listing is specifically for the sweater. This Hero yellow V-Neck Sweater is a fine-guage cotton knit with small ribs every 1.5" or so. It has been lined by the studio in a white fabric and the tags have been removed so the maker and size are unknown. It appears to be a size Large. This is the single most identifiable garment worn by Cuba Gooding in the film. It is in good screenworn condition with a reddish stain on one of the cuffs. It looks like it would come out if washed, but that is just an educated guess. This Hero Sweater comes with 2 Certificates of Authenticity. $119
