      He was particularly brilliant in this scene. His acting during the song is genius, and he never says a word. When he hears their harmonies and his demeanor changes from irritated & disgusted to surprised and impressed...a lot of actors would oversell that switch, but he does it perfectly. And he keeps it on that same level as walks down the line, then makes a perfect transition back to Joe Clark and marches them to the chorus room. Small things like that are what separates legends like Morgan Freeman from other great actors. There are a lot of great actors, but only one like Morgan Freeman

      Principals can't be struck like the use to now, because of so many rules. Some parents would rather act out when the staff at schools tries to discipline them; instead of doing it at home. Those days when kids got paddled at school; there wasn't all of the nonsense with kids going on and kids respected their elders too
