so apparently, hilary swank got an award at the Time for Peace Awards for her contribution (what contribution? all she did was act in a movie her publicist thought would be a good project) to the movie freedom writers.
wasn't that movie just a poor re-telling of 1995's dangerous minds?
at-risk, inner city kids are headed down the wrong track, new teacher arrives & tries to (unsucessfully) connect with the kids, teacher sees things from different perspective, teacher gets to kids & inspires them, kids go on to bigger & better things than their surroundings... sound familiar?
so yeah, the USofA is at war, and the movie title has the word "freedom" in it and kids are now officially the future... does all that really translate into enough evidence for an award for the lead actor in a movie? besides, michelle pfeiffer was much hotter and much more convincing in the caring teacher roll...
