David Mamet brings his drama of sexism and political correctness to the screen. William H. Macy, stars as a college professor who takes time to help a misunderstood student and comes to regret it. Mamet’s script crackles with the conflicts that ensue when student and teacher hear not what is meant, but what places each in a more adventitious position.
