ever see the movie “lean on me”? it reminds me of mr kelly, one of our old teachers at dematha, not just because he liked to quote the movie, but sometimes he acted just like morgan freeman’s character.
it’s a good movie – if you’ve never seen it then you should check it out sometime. the tv version edited for content isn’t as good, though. the editing removes a lot of the forcefulness.
