Delightful, laugh out loud funny, a great look at small town life in the South. Living your dream is the theme, for parents and kids alike,and it is a refreshing look at wanting to be all you can be that does not include a fat paycheck. A coming of age movie with an honest happy ending, how cool is that?
Good acting, terrific writing, find your Bliss when you see this movie.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

I saw this movie twice, and liked and understood it better the second time. this is realistic, sometimes laughable, mostly intense, about one teacher and a room full of hormone fueled 14 yr olds. As a former teacher I found the give and take, questions, interruptions etc real and quite heartwarming--shows you that no matter where or who, when you are 14--or the teacher of same--we are all overwhelmed by the sheer size of our world and worried that we won't be able to succeed making our way successfully in it.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Great little flick with excellent writing and acting --a scene everyone in the world is famiiar with, (date for New Years Eve) and each searching,/exploratory/ hopeful encounter with one another make the protaganists us, back in the day. A sweet and sly look at the way we were.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
