TEACHERS (BILINGUAL) [IMPORT]

Details

• Release Year: 1984
• Genre: Comedy, Drama
• Plot: A student bleeds from a stab wound. The school psychologist goes stark raving bonkers over the ditto machine. A teacher reassuringly checks the snub-nosed .38 tucked into her briefcase. The driver's ed training car seems to be missing. Yes, it's just another Monday morning at JFK High School.; ; Outrageously funny, deeply dramatic and intensely human, Teachers blows the lid off America's troubled public schools. Nick Nolte delivers an exceptional performance as a teacher burned out after years of struggling with the system. JoBeth Williams is the feisty lawyer and ex-student who awakens both his ideals and his lost ardor. As the savvy but unyielding vice-principal, Judd Hirsch is outstanding as he heads a fine supporting cast including Laura Dern, Ralph Macchio, Crispin Glover, Richard Mulligan and Lee Grant.; ; 'A hilarious, horrifying black comedy' (Cosmopolitan), Teachers does for the current disheveled state of public education what Network did for television, while like any good educator, making you laugh, learn and think.
