Dangerous Minds (1995)

Published: Aug. 20, 2021, 1:28 p.m.

This Pfriday, step inside the classroom as we cover one of the iconic staples of the 90s: DANGEROUS MINDS. The immediately recognizable poster art, a Grammy-winning hit in Coolio's Gangta's Paradise, and Michelle's Southern ex-Marine all came together to make this one of the biggest box-office smashes of 1995 (and the biggest hit of Michelle's actor-producer career). This episode has more video store memories, the pitfalls of being formulaic, and teacher-student movies that we love and how Dangerous Minds falls amongst them. There will be a quiz after - all you have to do is try and you get a Butterfinger.
