Review of Blackboard Jungle (1955) by David Ray G — 16 Jul 2010
Very good "teacher trying to reach troubled students" film that pretty much started the genre (and of course, started rock and roll in film). Glenn Ford is perfect as Mr. Daddy-O, er, I mean Dadier and Sidney Poitier and Vic Morrow are also great as two of the students.
Surprisingly this film has aged pretty well, maybe not the setting so much, but the message it's trying to make.
