Accepted: An American Film Directed By Steve Pink

Accepted is an American movie directed by Steve Pink, and it is talking about a rejected teenager who finally create his own college. After graduating from high school, Bartle B was rejected by every college that he applied to while most of his friends could enter in famous colleges. It really humiliated his whole family. In order to fulfill his parents, he and some of his friends came up with an idea of creating a new college with a functional website which is called “South Harmon Institute of Technology”, and this college was renovated by themselves from an abandoned building. Because his parents wanted to meet dean of the college, he decided to hire Uncle Ben to play the role. Unfortunately, an unexpected thing happened when a large number of rejected students came on the first day of college and paid the tuition fees for his website stated everyone is accepted. When Bartle B realized that they were also refused from all colleges, he ultimately decided to make this college real and functional by producing a curriculum, thus, letting students to
write what they want to learn on a huge whiteboard. However his plan was ruined by the principle of Hormon College making his college force to close, and his parents to be more disappointed and shame on him. With his resilient attitude, Bartle B could convince the board to grant his college a one-year permission to test his new system of teaching students based on their own passionate. Throughout the whole movie, I have learnt some lessons.
First, as a human, we should not easily give up on tasks about that we passion. In the movie, Bartle B did not give up on his idea of running the college even though he was lack of supporters, thus he want to have a college for students to be who they are. Therefore, he obtained a fruitful result. Last but not lease, I have learnt that the system of entering to all universities at America is very selective, which means only students with good performances can enter universities. On the other hand, that system in Cambodia is far easier which students just solely pay fees and can start their universities. In conclusion, Accepted is a good movie that offer watchers some ideas related to the education systems especially one in America. I do highly recommend this movie to other people for themes and plots of this movie contain lots of values of education and
more.
