Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
Novelist Evan Hunter burst America's postwar bubble when he described an inner-city school terrorized by switchblade-wielding juvenile delinquents. Director-screenwriter Richard Brooks's 1955 adaptation of Blackboard Jungle still packs a tremendous wallop (even if it was shot mostly on the back lot). A forerunner of Rebel Without a Cause and West Side Story, this black-and-white classic--set to Bill Haley and His Comets' "Rock Around the Clock"--is part exposé, part melodrama, part public-service announcement. "It is the frankest, the toughest, the most realistic film since On the Waterfront," ballyhooed MGM at the time.

Glenn Ford, at his slow-to-rile best, plays Richard Dadier, an incoming English teacher at North Manual High School. An idealist who knows how to handle himself in a dark alley, Dadier stands his ground and earns the begrudging respect of school thugs led by Vic Morrow and Sidney Poitier. Anne Francis plays Ford's especially vulnerable wife; Richard Kiley (later in Brooks's Looking for Mr. Goodbar) is the timid math teacher with the priceless jazz-record collection; Louis Calhern and John Hoyt are among the more cynical North Manual High veterans. See if you can ID Jamie Farr and director Paul Mazursky as gang members. The film was nominated for four Oscars. --Glenn Lovell

- Review of Blackboard Jungle DVD
Blackboard Jungle I saw this movie in the theatre when I was in high school, and of course, was impressed with the opening rendition of "Rock Around The Clock" by Bill Haley and His Comets. It's a classic representation of the 1950s adult view of "Juvenile Delinquents," or incorrigible high school students in an Eastern (New York), mixed ethnic neighborhood, where an all-boy school is taught by teachers who try to reach these boys who seemingly "don't want to learn." Glenn Ford is the "new teacher ... Read More

- Teaching at the Bottom Rung
Is there a problem with "juvenile delinquency" in our schools? Is "rock and roll" destroying the youth of America? Would Hollywood exploit this concern? The film starts by showing an elevated subway train in New York city. Richard Dadier applies for job as an English teacher at North Manual High School. "There is no discipline problem." The students assemble to meet the new teachers. Some students have an attitude problem. Dadier takes charge of his class. Later he rescues a new teacher from unwanted ... Read More

- "DO YOU LIKE SWING"? A CLASSIC....... OH DADDY O!
Blackboard Jungle is an interesting film that features Glen Ford and some young new talent that would find bigger fame in later years. Sidney Poitier,Vic Marrow and Jamie Farr(Jameel Farrah then) all play teens in this tale of juvenile delinquents in a lower class school that Ford comes to teach in. Still holds up well considering it's age. Poitier would later do "To Sir With Love" and switch roles by playing the teacher. This film is basically a remake of that film, but not exactly. The DVD transfer ... Read More
