Waiting for "Superman"

The director Davis Guggenheim (An Inconvenient Truth) takes a long, hard look at the American public education system in this documentary.

“A powerful and alarming documentary about America’s failing public school system.” (Stephen Holden, New York Times)

“This is a time when urgent issues are often explored in polemic documentaries, as well as a fateful moment when the future of public education is being debated with unprecedented intensity. Waiting for Superman makes an invaluable addition to the debate.” (Joe Morgenstern, Wall St. Journal)

“This movie isn't just a necessity (listen up, do-nothing politicians) — it might change your future.” (Peter Travers, Rolling Stone)

The National Board of Review named WAITING FOR “SUPERMAN” one of the ten best documentaires of 2010.
