Editorial Review:

Amazon.com essential video:
Novelist James Clavell wrote, produced, and directed this 1967 British film (based on a novel by E.R. Braithwaite) about a rookie teacher who throws out stock lesson plans and really takes command of his unruly, adolescent students in a London school. Poitier is very good as a man struggling with the extent of his commitment to the job, and even more as a teacher whose commitment is to proffering life lessons instead of academics. The spirit of this movie can be found in such recent films as Dangerous Minds and Mr. Holland's Opus, but none is as moving as this one. Besides, the others don't have a title song performed by pop star Lulu. --Tom Keogh

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - DVD Defect?
My dvd had a GODZILLA movie instead of the widescreen version of "TS,WL". The Full-screen version was ok but I detest full-screen butchering so I wanted this in wide-screen... Because there is a Godzilla movie on the disc instead of "To Sir, With Love" could be why it's been discontinued. Hopefully there will be a special ed coming out soon including as a bonus a clip of LuLu belting out the title song when she mentored on "American Idol" - she tore it up!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - What is your problem Columbia.....Bring this classic back in Print...
I find it frustrating with the economy being so bad to pay $74.00 to $100.00 dollars for a dvd especially a popular classic like this. This movie is amazing and one of my favorites. I higly recommend this movie. as for columbia dvd going out of print fast is nerve wrecking because u get greedy creeps who yank up the price like gas.anyhow hopefully columbia will re-issue this,it is a popular and cherished classic....



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Unimpressed
2.5 stars. Poitier is Poitier. I'm starting to believe his whole charm was that he looked good in sixties-styled clothing. But as far as having any depth I've only seen a glimmer of it in A raisin in the sun. The rest, well, they all seem like the same character. Really, there's no difference between this performance and that of A patch of Blue or Guess who's coming to Dinner. Plus if this was the depth of problems in the late sixties then truly it was a generation of spoiled brats. I just wasn't impressed.






Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Why So Much ?????
Can anybody tell me why this DVD is so costly starting at $74.00? I know many people that would love to have a copy of "To Sir With Love" on DVD, but the steep price is a real deterrent to making that purchase.
