5. Class
The brat pack in one of their lesser films. You’ve got Andrew McCarthy bangin one of the original MILFs, Jaqueline Bisset.
4. Lost and Delirious
Piper Perabo vehicle about lesbianism and teen angst. If you made it past the first half of that sentence, good for you.
3. Outside Providence
Hilarious. Dumb as hell, and wildly uneven, but still hilarious. Go rent it, dildo.
2. Dead Poets’ Society
Duh. Everyone’s already seen it. Should have been Robin Williams’ Oscar turn, rather than the fat bearded version of Mr. Keating he trotted out in Good Will Hunting.
1. Toy Soldiers
Sean Astin battles terrorists who take over the school. Plus, the tough but fair headmaster is the dude from Iron Eagle (Louis Gossett, Jr.). Oh, and R. Lee Ermey too. Did I mention Wil Wheaton? I LOVE this film. It is to boarding school what Red Dawn is to the Cold War.
Honorable Mention:
X-Men films, which are decent, but in which the boarding school just isn’t central enough to the plot.
Harry Potter Films – boarding school very central, but I happen to have an irrational dislike of all things Potter
Scent of a Woman – If I were half the blogger I was back then, I’d take a flamethrower to this film. Hoo-AH!
