Personally, I feel that the male protagonist, the ethics teacher, is actually quite hypocritical; moreover, there is a typical "sour grape" and "imbalance" psychology. I am destined to have nothing in my life, and I want to prevent students from getting ahead-of course, the Flick girl is not a good person, after all, tearing up the opponent's campaign poster is not a way of getting on the table. But Anyway, if it weren't for the "sour grape" and "imbalance" psychology, the ethics teacher might still be able to live comfortably in his old age at school, and he wouldn't end up in New York to curl up in the basement room :-P

Of course, I believe that many people have this kind of "abnormal" psychology of the male protagonist. . . Sigh ~ ~ ~

It is worth mentioning that the sister of the former football player in the second stupid, the cynical little "lace edge", has the mentality of breaking the jar and spoiling the game to the end. The act "takes on one's own body, unexpectedly "because of a blessing in disguise", as she wished, was transferred to the girl's middle school she dreamed of by her family. Satire!

    Payne's script turned the simple plot into rich and sharp, and Reese's few freezes were too cheap and ugly!

    Alexander Payne is so handy in making this kind of little comedy. The campus in the film is like a miniature society, and every choice may change the direction of life. Many Cautious shots are both cute and a bit bad, especially the teacher's jealousy towards the students. Witherspoon is too suitable to play this kind of pushy female student. In order to arouse the audience's disgust, the director deliberately fixed the scene on her ugliness.

    Dave Novotny: Jim, come on, I don't need a lecture on ethics.

    Jim McAllister: I'm not talking about ethics, I'm talking about morals.

    Dave Novotny: What's the difference?
