my second best

This movie Freedom Writers is a well done movie produced by MTV Films/ Double Feature Films/ Jersey Film Productions. Includes Swank (Erin or Mrs. G), Patrick Dempsey (Scott), Imelda Staunton (Margaret), and Scott Glenn (Steve and Mrs. G’s dad), April Lee Hernandez (Ava), Mario (Andre), Jason Finn (Marcus), and Hunter Parrish (Ben) this cast along with Richard LaGravenese as director portray the story of teens with the message of that no race or color is better then any other and that respect means nothing when you’re dead.
This movie is telling the story of the class of room 203 in Wilson high school where there used to be just white people until the integration was formed then there was Latinos, African American, Asians, juvenile delinquents, gang members and under privileged and poor students. Everyday there are people killed over race, color, for respect, and for “territory”. Also a lot of these teen that we fallow are a part of a gang so it shows us their life and what they go through and the racial issue then and still even now.
I myself find that in this movie the actors and actresses portray the parts of the underprivileged and the gangs like they were actually these people in every day life their parts would be difficult to do but these people are like no others then I guess.
I seen one other of Richard LaGravenese’s movies it was P.S I Love You, and I do find that this movie wasn’t as good as the other but the other was more comedic then this but this movie was better in the sense that the acting was better and much more believable.
