972.0. "The Principal" by BUSY::SLABOUNTY (Do ya wanna bump and grind with me?) Wed Nov 22 1995 15:14

    
    	Jim Belushi, Lou Gossett Jr., Rae Dawn Chong.
    
    	Jim is a teacher who gets "promoted" to vice principal of a
    	very tough school in a lower-class neighborhood across town,
    	where Lou is head of Security and Rae is a teacher.
    
    	Apparently no one there seems to be interested in changing the
    	way things are going, until Jim gets there.  He learns of the
    	major problems as well as the self-proclaimed "leader" of the
    	school [character's name is Victor].
    
    	And you can imagine how the story plays out.
    
    	Some harsh language and violence.
    
    	I've wanted to see this for a long time now, and I finally
    	got a chance last night when it was on cable [unfortunately
    	it started after midnight].  Far-fetched in places, but
    	overall I liked it.
    

    
    
    I saw this one ages ago and enjoyed it.
