Aroview: Hilary Swank guides a classroom of problem students through the quagmire of racial and political divide in this uplifting paean to education.

Gradually reshaping hostility in the aftermath of 1992’s LA Riots through the introduction of Anne Frank’s Diary, Swank’s headstrong performance urges the film into genuinely inspiring moments, even if its feel-good Hollywood formula is over-pronounced, and less BLACKBOARD JUNGLE than DANGEROUS MINDS.
