Freedom Writers – True Story

Freedom Writer

A couple of days ago i watched this movie. Yes it’s Freedom Writer starring by Hillary Swank, she was very hilarious there and of course it based on true story (i like a movie based on true story).  And this movie is really inspiring me, so if you haven’t seen this movie, i really suggest you to watch it and it’s a worth watching.

You can read the plot here. It is a truly amazing story and inspired me. And after that i tried search on google, and i found this website and lot of information about them there.

“Freedom Writers is a 2007 American film starring Hilary Swank, Scott Glenn, Imelda Staunton and Patrick Dempsey. It is based on the book The Freedom Writers Diary by teacher Erin Gruwell who wrote the story based on Woodrow Wilson Classical High School in Long Beach, California. The title is a play on both the terms of “Freedom Riders“, the black and white civil rights activists who tested the U.S. Supreme Court decision ordering the desegregation of interstate buses in 1961, and Freedom Fighters, as in somebody who fights for freedom.

The idea for the film came from journalist Tracey Durning, who made a documentary about Erin Gruwell for the ABC News program Primetime Live. Durning served as co-executive producer of the film.” (source: wikipedia)
