The 80s had a slew of high school movies, but Class of 1984 pushed the anarchic-teen template further than the majority subsequently dared to go.
It focuses primarily on Mr Norris, the new music teacher, played perfectly by Perry King. Norris is aware that teaching is a mostly thankless job, but he has a fool notion that pupils want to learn. As he struggles to do what’s right, all else around him is turning a blind eye. Weapon checks are failing, there’s more graffiti inside the building than out and drug deals go down daily in the student washrooms. Can he be blamed then for crossing a line when he's forcibly pushed over it by the hate crimes of ingrate bastards? He's there to teach and that's what he does! Get the uncut version for the full lesson.
