I first saw this film not long after it was released on VHS until it wore out. It was a great positive and feel good film and it also pinpointed some of the issues that those from a community and low socio-economic background face on a daily basis. This is a great feel good movie showing that determination, passion and how a great teacher can inspire those to achieve what they can and not just to expect what 'society' expects them to achieve and willing to fight for them bringing the issue of racism to the fore. Leading by example to a great end! Based on a true story that makes it even more enjoyable. Edward James Olmos is brilliant as Jaime Escalante the teacher. Great quality DVD. sound and picture excellent. It doesn't matter how many times I see it. It never loses its appeal or the entertainment value. Highly recommend this movie.Read full review
