Review of Monsieur Lazhar (2011) by Michael H — 26 Apr 2013
A replacement teacher and his students help each other come to terms with tragedies in their lives. Compassionate, thoughtful, often very funny.
Recognizes that a modern classroom with its heavily regulated behavior can be an environment hostile to compassion and connection and addresses that both as a part of the inciting tragedy and as an obstacle to dealing with it.
