You Better Wake Up And Pay Attention: The Best High School Struggle Movies
Music Of The Heart
The King of Scare, Wes Craven, is known for his horror films but the one time he stepped outside of the genre and directed a feel-good film, he earned his only Oscar nominations for any of his movies. Meryl Streep starred as Roberta Guaspari, who is hired as a substitute violin teacher for a school in the heart of Harlem in Music of the Heart. The music program enjoyed a successful 10-year run before it was threatened by budget cuts. Streep, who can seemingly do anything, learned how to play Bach’s “Concerto 2” for violins for the 1999 film.
