Spyder Darling's Top 10 'School Movies'
The "school movie" is a time-tested genre older than the canned string beans served in most cafeterias today. Typically, it breaks down into three categories: "the teacher who made a difference," "the football game that made a difference," and "the burn-outs who couldn't tell the difference."
You can pass the bong and guess which category is my favorite. With that in mind, here's my A+ list of
Hollywood's best attempts at documenting higher education as we know it:
- Rock 'n' Roll High School (1978)
- Rushmore (1998)
- The Breakfast Club (1985)
- Fast Times at Ridgemont High (1982)
- Blackboard Jungle (1955)
- Up the Down Staircase (1967)
- Animal House (1978)
- Reform School Girls (1986)
- Dead Poets Society (1989)
- Back to School (1986)
