Review of Monsieur Lazhar (2011) by John M — 17 Sep 2016

It has the worn out story sometimes of the new teacher coming in and finding a place with his students, but luckily, there's a center to this movie about how both kids and adults deal with grief and also the ridiculousness of the intimate limitations teachers have to put up with in regards to their students.

There are some very emotional scenes in here in an otherwise more lighthearted affair that definitely makes it worth viewing.
