Director: Mel Gibson
Cast: Mel Gibson, Nick Stahl, Margaret Whitton, Fay Masterson, Gaby Hoffman
A disfigured ex-teacher becomes a father figure to a troubled teenager in Mel Gibson's moving directorial debut, which is based on Isabelle Holland's novel. The film is reminiscent of Dead Poets Society, but that's not a bad thing.
