The Dream Class

"Freedom Writers", starring Hilary Swank, Scott Glenn, Imelda Staunton and Patrick Dempsey it is a 2007 American film. The film is directed by Richard LaGravenese and produced by Danny DeVito, Michael Shamberg, Stacey Sher. This movie is great in my opinion.

This film is about a young new excited schoolteacher who leaves her hometown, Newport Beach, to teach at Woodrow Wilson High School in Long Beach, where a new program has implemented where students of all backgrounds and races are put in classes together. The new teacher known as Mr.G has alot of struggles at the first of the semester, all of the children have no interest in learning and they want to fight with each other. With no help from anyone from the school for books, Mrs.G works three jobs to buy new books for all the students. She plays games with the students and she gets everyone all working together, and everyone likes everyone in the end!

I really enjoyed this film, i like the real life situations like this one. I would sooner see this film rather than anyother horor film because this is a true story. It relates to other films that i have seen in the past but this one was more catchy because it had real life situations and told how some teenagers live day to day.

The time and setting of the film was the part that stood out the most in my view. The setting of the classroom and the outside world of the students lives was excellent especially the home of the people and the scenes on the streets. All of the sudents in the film played a excellent job playing thier roles, and Mrs.G was a fantastic teacher!
