Randa Haines
The Ron Clark Story (also known as The Triumph in Australia, New Zealand, The Netherlands, Belgium, the UK, Sweden and the Philippines) is directed by Randa
Haines. This movie based
on events in the life of Ron Clark that starring Matthew Perry . The genre of this movie
is drama. This movie is setting in Aurora, North Carolina
in Snowden Elementary School, then in Harlem, New York, Inner
Harlem Elementary School at 1994 and four years later, 1998. An overview of the
plot of this movie is chronological plot.
Ron
Clark (Matthew Perry) is
a teacher in Snowden Elementary School in North Carolina who moves to New York.
In New York he looks for Public School and during his searching, he works in a
restaurant then meet with Marissa (Melissa De Sousa). After refused in some
school, he found Inner Harlem Elementary School and he accepts to teach in
there. He choose to teach in the class with the students who have problem with
learning, discipline, and social skill such as Tayshawn Mitchell (Brandon
Mychal Smith), Shameika Wallace (Hannah Hodson), Julio Varquez (Micah Stephen
Williams), and Badriyah (Bren Eastcott). Before he start
teaches, he goes to meet the student’s parent.
In the class he tries
to make the rule for his students. He almost gives up because his students hard
to arrange but Marissa give him spirits. So, he back to teach again. Then, the
students begin to like him.
One day he gets
pneumonia but he decides to teach by video record. After back to the class, the
student’s progressive go down. Clark thinks he was failed but he remains
optimistic about their chance. After examination, Mr. Clark takes his student
to see The Phantom of the Opera. Then, his class become the best class and his
students got a higher score than any other class in final examination and Mr.
Clark was regarded by his student as their best teacher.
Costume design in this
movie fit the style of the movie. The background look realistic and this movie were
filmed in a real place that is in a school. The background of this movie was
choosing a school because the story of this movie tells about a teacher who
teaches the student who has a problem. Background music fit the scene.
I
like this movie because Ron Clark inspires us to be a creative teacher and give
attention to our students. Ron Clark gives us hint and practical strategies to
keep children excited about learning and motivated to be their best, such
as make a rap for remember the President of USA.
But,
I dislike this movie because there is a kissing scene between Clark and
Marissa. I think that scene is didn’t fit to movie with education theme and
family viewing. The viewer of this movie is start from children until up, so
that scene is doesn’t right to watch by children.
Aside
from kissing scene, this movie was exciting and interesting to watch especially
for us who become a teacher.
