Here's a very short bio that's well worth the 3 minutes to watch it. Especially if you're not a big fan.

Thanks for the link to the video. I love watching old footage of Clemente!
I saw a movie not too long ago called "Chasing 3000". It's supposedly a true story about some boys who moved from Pittsbrugh to California and then ran away back to Pittsburgh so that they could see Clemente get his 3,000th hit. It has some highlight movies of Clemente and even some of his baseball cards. It's not a great movie, but a very good one.
