A story that needs to be told

I liked this movie the first time I watched it,which is probably why I have watched it twice since then.Seeing future stars in a small time movie was a bonus but it was the story that appealed to me.Anti-Semitism was once the "in-thing",just as lynching African Americans was once accepted and condoned.It's a sad and shameful part of our history,a part that we'd like to forget but we most definitely shouldn't...because if we do we just might repeat ourselves,and nobody wants to do that...do they?

I think "School Ties" gets the point across.Sure the script has its flaws,but which script doesn't?The story is an important one.Each time we watch it we"ll remember and that's a good thing,'cause we just might forget and that would be dangerous.

Trivia
The movie was rumored to be reportedly based on the personal experiences of writer and television producer Dick Wolf, however, in a 2003 interview, Wolf stated that the story was not autobiographical, but had themes that were important to him.

Errores
Though it is a funny scene, there are only two ways that the boys could have been able to put Cleary's car in his room: Carrying it inside or disassembling the car outside and reassembling it in his room. Both are totally impossible, given the effort it would take for either method and the amount of time they had during Cleary's stroll.

Citas
[last lines]
Charlie Dillon: You know something? I'm still gonna get into Harvard. And in 10 years no one will remember any of this. But you'll still be a goddamn Jew.
David Green: And you'll still be a prick.
