#631: Reading Between the Lines

October 6, 2011

Notes from the Manager

In case you're not familiar with some or all of these movies, they all deal with a teacher making some profound impact on some kids.

October Sky is about science teacher (Laura Dern) inspiring some kids to play with rockets, Freedom Writers is basically a remake of Dangerous Minds without Coolio (and with Hilary Swank as Michelle Pfeiffer), and Stand and Deliver is about Commander Adama and the crew of his spaceship leading a small fleet of survivors in search of a fabled refuge known as Earth. Or something like that. I haven't seen it since I was a kid, so my memory of it could be a little fuzzy.


Multiplex 10 is here!

Although Multiplex 10 has ended, an animated prequel/reboot called Multiplex 10 was funded through Kickstarter in 2017 and is NOW AVAILABLE for rent or purchase on Vimeo On Demand, Amazon Video, and elsewhere! And an all-new, irregularly-updated Multiplex 10 web series (set after the short film) recently launched on YouTube! Learn more about the web series on the official Multiplex 10 website!
