Review of Half Nelson (2006) by Train M — 28 Jul 2011
Half Nelson is a compelling story about a teacher addicted to drugs who is helped by his own student who has a few problems in her own family. A touching story that is unsentimental, and honestly, it works much better that way.
About as realistic as a movie can get. It's not Hollywood fluff, so be warned. Great performances from Ryan Gosling and Shareeka Epps.
