I especially love the scenes when he fights with his staff. Very powerful when that young teach turned over his office desk and demanded the same damn respect and also when he gets blasted by his old friend and afterwards his friend tells him "...ok, let's go get something to eat."👍

Morgan Freeman is a national treasure. I know someone who taught under Principal Clark: yes he rid the school of drugs and he should be revered for that, but this film is not a documentary, it's a great story brilliantly acted.

Remember watching this as a little girl. My favorite part is Mr. Clark making the boys sing the school song in the bathroom and busting into the choir room only to end up congratulating the director on changing the school song.
