The Teacher in Cinema

We examine the relationship between students ant their teachers in fourteen seminal films. Students lean, rebel, are inspired, reject, and mature. Teachers and professors try to promote education using various methods with varied success and failures meanwhile trying to achieve something in their personal and professional lives. These are strong representations of education over a 75 year period of movie making. With each film we will discuss how the profession and art of teaching have changed, both in representation and in perception, as well as the merits and success of each film
