" Centers around eight boisterous-yet-talented schoolboys hoping to gain admittance to England's most prestigious universities. They are aided on their quest by two teachers, a shrewd young upstart and an inspiring old eccentric, whose opposing philosophies challenge the boys to confront the true meaning of education and the relative values of happiness and success."
Even without understanding all of the dialogue (my pesky American ears could not understand all the spoken English), I thoroughly enjoyed this film.
The students are studying for the entrance exams to Oxford University colleges, and are tutored by Hector, an old fuddy duddy teacher of long standing (who likes to fondle his students's genitalia as he gives them rides on his motorcycle - something they all accept), and a teacher brought specifically to tutor them.
