you can get through issues in your life if you fight through them. Very good motivational film. I found it very inspiring‚ but very unrealistic. Most teachers are not qualified to do the things she did and I’ve found that Freedom Writers has inspired some very untalented teachers to try to be like her.

Perspective on the movie Wit When I watched the film “Wit” at first‚ I became curious to the reason why it was entitled “Wit”. The overall plot of the story seems so simple but there are a lot of twists which become clear as the story unfolds.
