Stand and Deliver

I bought this movie with the intention of showing my students (I'm a math teacher)...totally not appropriate! It had a PG rating on the description. I liked the movie for myself but not PG enough for students. November 11, 2008

Stand and Deliver

Excellent production with a wonderful cast. I am a school administrator, so what was especially resonant for me was the realism of the school tone especially the weariness of teachers and surliness of students. Olmos' performance is terrific: vivid, animated, and compelling. September 6, 2008

This was a great movie. I had to have this for a leadership class where we identified the leadership styles of the teacher, principal and the department head. August 12, 2008

A Top Five Favorite of Mine

This movie got me through nursing school. I was the single mom of two children and had to work full-time while I was in school. I almost quit a couple of times.

Whenever I felt discouraged, I would watch this movie again and draw fresh strength from it. I just bought it for my daughter...because she starts nursing school this month.

Many thanks to everyone who was involved with making this film! July 31, 2008

An old favorite.

Stand and Deliver starring Edward James Olmos and Lou Diamond Philips is based on a true story. Olmos gives the performance of his career, he is absolutely brilliant as an inspriational teacher. All these student/teacher films have the same formula, troubled but gifted students who need a little push thanks to a supportive and focused teacher, but this film actually carries off the message really well, and under-rated gem. Buy it today! July 24, 2008
