Movie Reviews of She Fought Alone: True Stories CollectionMovie Review: Sad Story of High School Sports Summary: 5 Stars
High school sports be it in a small town or urban area, take a front seat to academics. The star of the football team rapes a student and the student is made to be the villain. Tiffani Amber-Thiessen, all grown-up from "Save By the Bell" plays a student trying to elevate her popularity by hanging out with the "cool" crowd only to be an outcast becasue she refused to allow her attacker get away with a crime. Her girlfriends are unsupportive of her because they are too caught up in this "hunk" who is nothing more than a senseless jerk.
The principal, a female and mature woman, seems to turn a blind eye to this. She is part of the problem as to why our education system is failing. The lack of academics and student conduct and too much emphasis on the school winning a team doesn't make an upstanding school. She at first isn't willing to take drastic action until a lawyer comes in and lets her know what the law is and says. That is when she starts to panic and gathers her senses.
This is a movie not only for the audience to watch, but a tool for educators who think they can sweep up problems like this under the rug.
