Film/Video HIGH SCHOOL DIRECTED BY FREDERICK WISEMAN THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 2003, 1 PM FREE AUDITORIUM  NOVEMBER  2 | 5 | 6, 1 PM | 6, 8 PM | 9 | 10 | 12 | 14 | 15 | 16 | 19 | 20 | 21   "The most frightening thing about High School is that it captures the battlefield so clearly; the film is too true" (Newsweek). This documentary shows us that a school system exists not only to pass on facts but, ideally, to transmit social values from one generation to another. In 1968 in a large school in Philadelphia, Wiseman captures on film a series of formal and informal clashes between teachers, students, parents, and administrators through which the ideology and values of the school emerge. Spoofed in Wes Anderson's 1998 feature Rushmore, Wiseman's film is a wicked, brilliant documentary. 1968, U.S., BW, 16mm, 75 minutes.
