Paul Giamatti is One Tough Teacher | The Holdovers

Описание: Paul Hunham (Paul Giamatti) receives the keys to Barton Academy for Christmas break, his exile to babysit the holdovers beginning with bureaucratic ceremony—then his classroom becomes a battlefield of uncompromising standards and failing grades. His pedagogical philosophy brooks no sentiment or mercy, ancient civilizations and Latin declensions delivered with withering precision, and when Angus Tully (Dominic Sessa) attempts to advocate for his suffering classmates, the protest backfires spectacularly—Paul's response ensuring the young rebel learns that challenging authority without strategy only deepens everyone's misery, a lesson in consequences delivered with acidic eloquence.
