This is one of my favorite movie starring Morgan Freeman. There is a lot that can be said about the breakdown of discipline in our schools and its negative impact on schools today.
And also directed by one of the finest directors ever: JOHN G. AVILDSEN!
Fast forward to 1989 Eastside deteriorates into chaos, with hoodlums and drug dealers invading a 90% African-American student body. He immediately takes control, but he is far too tough, a complete dictator.

Once in a blue moon in reality an individual like this pops up and makes a difference in a society, in a classroom, in the minds of those children who would like to learn, in the system and in the world.

The sad part is the movie also showed what is actually happening in society, in the system, in the classrooms, but ends on a much better note for those kids who do go to school to learn.
I watched this movie when it was first released back in 1989.
I have bought many copies of this one over the years, because it gets watched so many times that I wear out the VHS/DVD.

None of his tactics would be allowed today in our ultra-sensitive and litigious society which is very sad in many ways.
If this was true it was a dire situation.
Money well spent IMHO! Morgan Freeman plays Crazy Joe Batman school Principal. but also the selection of songs, that are peppered thoughout the film-- including Eastside High's School song (which I assume really is their school song) and "Lean on Me " itself, written by Bill Withers, that is always so inspiring when you hear/sing it ...in this film especially !
Watch the video for Lean On Me from Michael Bolton's Gold for free, and see the artwork, lyrics and similar artists. When I first rented this movie, at first I found it a litle too energetic and made me feel rather uncomfortable. Please try againSorry, we failed to record your vote.

In the early intro based in 1967 which introduces "Joe Clark" as a gifted teacher there is a very inspiring speech by Joe on racism, which Donald Trump should hear.

One can't watch this movie without pondering the positive difference a principle like Joe Clark could have on a troubled student today or the positive impact that a principle like Joe Clark could have on a school that's failing its students.
