A slow start that picks up steam with a surprisingly authentic story. What could have been "bitter old white man" redeemed by "black street kid" is not what happens. They both polish and burnish each other, leading to a quietly successful next step. Spot-on depiction of upper middle class private schools; Anna Paquin does a good job of awkward challenge as the white schoolmate who's attracted to him.
