   • Dangerous Minds starts off like most save-our-students films: with a depiction of a broken, or at least not particularly affluent, neighborhood. In movies like Blackboard Jungle, Up the Down Staircase, and Stand and Deliver, the eventual hero teacher is seen walking, driving, or riding the bus to his or her first day on the job.
