Der knallharte Prinzipal: Directed by John G. Avildsen. With Morgan Freeman, Beverly Todd, Robert Guillaume, Alan North. The dedicated but tyrannical Joe Clark is appointed the principal of a decaying inner-city school he is determined to improve by any and all means.

“Freeman is perfectly cast as u0026quot;Crazyu0026quot; Joe Clark, a radical, newly appointed principal at a gradually deteriorating, gang-ridden Jersey high school who tries to get through to his students with a tough, opinionated, no-nonsense approach to the pursuit of academic excellence. The odds are stacked against him as the education board threatens to shut down Eastside High, but with his burning desire, devoted staff and administration, and some bright students who actually want to succeed, he rallies them for what will be the final chance to save the school. Based on a true story the premise is familiar and the script has its ups and downs, but itu0026#39;s meaningful and acted with strength and conviction, especially Freeman who is nothing short of superb. ***”
