As far as movie about inspiring teachers go, it wasn't the best but yes it has an interesting look at women's education and women's expected role in that period.Wandering through the Shelveshttp://wanderingthroughtheshelves.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2530796381730510727.post-31132699615813538782015-09-06T23:37:45.470+01:002015-09-06T23:37:45.470+01:00Thats what I like about Bad Teacher, she says the ...Thats what I like about Bad Teacher, she says the things I wish I could say. Election, for me, was surprise find. I kept seeing it mega cheap and always walked past but then one day I thought what the hell.

I used it on Movies Set in a High School. Can't say that I've seen Mona Lisa Smile. Never thought it would appeal to me. But given the cast, I definitely may give it a try.Kevin Powershttp://www.speaksinmovielines.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2530796381730510727.post-15020451575324080582015-09-04T08:30:23.088+01:002015-09-04T08:30:23.088+01:00Thank you!

It's a character film but there are quite a few well knowns in there. It's better than I expected though.Katie Hoganhttp://eversoethnicallyconfused.blogspot.co.uk/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2530796381730510727.post-72966658765962105232015-09-04T08:27:41.127+01:002015-09-04T08:27:41.127+01:00Thanks!

Great pick.<br /><br /><br />I haven't seen the other two, I can't abide Diaz and Julia Roberts in serious mode I find dreary with the exception of Steel Magnolias. But the films fit the theme very well.joelnoxnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2530796381730510727.post-9771223143212317392015-09-03T09:32:01.907+01:002015-09-03T09:32:01.907+01:00Great picks!
