Editorial Review:

Description:
Look at the too-cool-to-cope kids in Jaime Escalante's class at East L.A.'s tough Garfield High, and many will say they see a bunch of losers. Escalante sees scholars. How he cajoles, instructs, challenges and inspires his no-expectations barrio kids to pass the daunting Calculus Advanced Placement Test forms the amazing heart of Stand and Deliver [Side A], starring Edward James Olmos and Lou Diamond Phillips. Paterson, New Jersey's Eastside High is the setting for Lean on Me [Side B], starring Morgan Freeman as bat-and-bullhorn-toting principal Joe Clark, whose controversial methods turned the failing school around and made Clark a national symbol of tough-love education. His message: Don't lean on excuses, drugs or anger. Lean on yourself and me...and learn. School's now in session with these two true-life tales!

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - TWO INSPIRING LESSONS FOR THE PRICE OF ONE!
The two films included on this disc are based on true stories of dedication and determination. These "against the odds" school dramas are very likable with memorable performance by both leads in each film. Both movies are presented in widescreen with very good DVD transfers.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Little defect
On one side of my dvd, it had a scratch. At the end of the movie it skipped



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Stand and Deliver
Enjoyed this movie. Was a requirement for a class I was taking, but worth my time.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Amazing Real Life Stories
My family and I enjoyed both stories. Everyone needs to see these movies.
