HW 47 - Class Film Preparation 1

After reading another students blog to get an idea of what my classmates are thinking for this film, ive come to only one conclusion. It it that based on film reviews made by us on the films watched in class, only one element is used, role switching. Someone HAS to be saved, that is the idea, whether its from teacher to student or student to teacher. Why cant both parties be saved? Through the students change overcoming whatever oppressive scene we shoot, the teacher, after being seen as a well respected man who gains their trust, is realized to have his own problems just outside these school walls. Through ONE student's hopes to return what he has given him, they help the teacher to realize his own potential and give up whatever issues he has restraining him within to outstanding heights he can easily get to. (e.t. cheating husband, or dead son, hidden criminal record, or preaching to students that they can have it all but he lives in a dump on a measly salary, contradicting self)

but while writing this i have come up with a new idea, thats sort of how my brain works. As the students are exposed to this entirely new teacher, afar from the one of two they meet which are 1) either care too much 2) or doesnt care enough meets one who is in between. Only there for the paycheck, doesnt teach if they dont wanna learn, etc. In hopes of proving the teacher wrong that they arent entirely hopeless and have more potential than realized, they begin to show sparks of interest into the curriculum and shape up without him having to show pursuasion (secretely does). So as the students shape up the teacher begins to shape up and begins to appreciate his job, (possibly going to work drunk, begins to sober up)--last idea can be used for the first idea movie too!))
