Movies on Educators

After watching Freedom Writers, I feel that this is one of the best ‘teacher’ movie that I have watched. Besides this another movie that moved me would be ‘The Emperor’s Club’ starring Kevin Kline as the History teacher. That movie was really great; because one of the reasons is I always felt that Kevin Kline performs best as an educator. In ‘Orange County’ he played the role of a writing professor at Stanford University who encouraged his student and also a fan of his book, The Straightjacket, Shaun Brumder, to believe that you don’t need to go to a renowned university to be a writer, everything about being a writer is who you are and your significant others. In ‘The Emporer’s Club’ it is clearly shown whether a teacher had succeeded in educating their students or the students turn out to be losers in the future. It is a story about an elderly professor returning to his old high school to teach again and he had reminiscent recollections of the classroom he used to teach. Recently I also watched The Dead Poets Society, the teacher’s role played by Robbie William. It is about a poetry teacher who had to get the notion of poetry into the students’ minds. Another movie yet to be watched is Dangerous Minds starring Michelle Pieffer.
