overview
What is Lean On Me about?
Eastside High was out of control...until Joe Clark took it back. When principal Joe Clark takes over decaying Eastside High School, he's faced with students wearing gang colors and graffiti-covered walls. Determined to do anything he must to turn the school around, he expels suspected drug dealers, padlocks doors and demands effort and results from students, staff and parents. Autocratic to a fault, this real-life educator put it all on the line. It blends drama elements. The film reflects a distinct United States of America style and perspective. The story is brought to life by director John G. Avildsen. With a runtime of 1h 48m, it offers a comfortable feature-length experience.
