Movie Recomendation

"Half Nelson"
Ryan Gosling stars as a crack addicted teacher, who really cares about his students. Though a very dedicated teacher, he still struggles with his own personal demons. He's terrific, as is Shareeka Epps (in her first film) as one of his young students, who has a few stuggles of her own. The both won Independent Spirit awards for their performances, and of course Gosling was also an Oscar nominee. It's a great film from last year, let me know what you think if you see it. By the way, Ryan Gosling is about to be seen in theaters this Friday along side the great Anthony Hopkins in " Fracture " which looks like it could be a fine thriller of a film.
