Classic Film Friday: Blackboard Jungle

Richard Dadier (Glenn Ford) is a teacher, fresh out of school himself, and he takes a job in the inner city. He has to find ways to engage the kids and still not be killed by them.

Gregory Miller (Sidney Poitier) is a kid who could be something positive but because of kids being kids... he is more of a negative... at first. Mr. Dadier has to find a way to get a hold of those kids right? Right?

This movie also features 'Rock Around the Clock' which at the time was quite a tune...
