[Maths-Education] Clare

[Laurinda Brown]

Interesting the comparison with Stand and Deliver. I too used 'Clare'=20
with my students and we had a conversation about the comparisons=20
between Dead Poets and Stand and Deliver. For those who had not seen=20
either or both films I have them both on video (purchased:) Big Brother=20
and all that) and had wondered about doing a screening at some stage.=20
Why are the comparisons so striking?
