Review of Stand and Deliver (1988) by Jay Scott for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) — 29 May 2017
There were moments in Stand and Deliver that moved me very deeply and other moments so artificial and contrived that I wanted to edit them out, right then and there. The result is a film that makes a brave, bold statement about an unexpected subject, but that lacks the full emotional power it really should have.
