A brilliant portrait but be warned: no plot and not much hope. This is not Stand and Deliver.

The Visitor (2007)

A good reminder about what we lose when we close political or personal doors.

Wild Boys of the Road

A slightly stilted, hyperbolic title, yes. But also a great slice of life film from the first Great Depression, shot on location in places many films of the era didn't shoot.
