3.0 out of 5 stars A Debate Movie, May 20, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Listen to Me [VHS] (VHS Tape)

As a high school debate coach, I use this movie ocassionally in class. It illustrates the atmosphere of college forensics tournaments, including events other than debate, even though it is not precise in portraying "reality." My students like to examine the debates and critique what happens in the climactic final round in front of the Supreme Court. Kurt Cameron and Jami Gertz have great appeal with high school students. As a movie, it is about average in quality and storyline--it is fairly predictable and slightly melodramatic; however, it is one of the few movies to provide a glimpse into competitive speech, so it will be of particular interest to those who come into contact with this activity (parents, students, teachers, etc.).

5.0 out of 5 stars this movie shows the real heart in debate, June 17, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Listen to Me [VHS] (VHS Tape)

this moovie not only shows what a debate should be with all the heart you can put into it. It also shows the struggle many a young gril has gone through, and with friends like tucker she made it through. This movie shows the power of friendship at its all time high. Not only is it a made a good movie by its content but by its one liners lie "How can you just walk away from debate!" and "I lift cars for you every night" and the most inmportant "WE NEED A PLAN!" Speaking as a debater I think all debates should be like that with that much emtion and that much support. Everyone should see this movie and learn form it, Listen to Me!

4.0 out of 5 stars An excellent character study revolving around Roe vs. Wade, February 17, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Listen to Me [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Listen to Me is a profound and moving drama starring the great Roy Scheider and big 80's stars Kirk Cameron and Jami Gertz. The story involves a college debate team's attempts to make emotional sense of their issues about their assigned topic: abortion. Arguing both sides, as debaters must, they come to terms with their true opinions and find peace with each other.
