Title: That was not That Was Then. . .This is Now.
Review: I totally agree with Ms. Horkey and the Texas School Teacher. What a let down!I realize that the screenplay was written byEmilio Estevez instead of S.E. Hinton (as in The Outsiders). I will never waste my money on or embarrass my students with anything scripted by him again. Too bad I did not read their reviews before I ordered or preview it before I showed it to my ninth graders (who are learning English as a second language). Their is no excuse or justification for such a rotten rendition of book used in schools for the past twenty years. It was so bad we had to turn off the video and just finish reading the final three chapters--totally unacceptable, and I am still angry! If you take EE's favorite F word and the two letter preposition that tends to be used with it, this describes his rendition of a wonderful work.
