Description: Up for auction “Teachers” Nick Nolte & JoBeth Williams Hand Signed 10X8 B&W Photo ES-6735E Teachers is a 1984 American satirical black comedy-drama film written by W. R. McKinney, directed by Arthur Hiller, and starring Nick Nolte, JoBeth Williams, Ralph Macchio, and Judd Hirsch. It was shot in Columbus, Ohio, mostly at the former Central High School. On a typical Monday morning at John F. Kennedy High School in the inner city of Columbus, Ohio, there is conflict between teachers, a student with a stab wound and a talk of an upcoming lawsuit. Vice principal Roger Rubell and principal Eugene Horn meet with lawyer Lisa Hammond, who is in charge of depositions for a recent graduate's lawsuit against the school for granting him a diploma despite his illiteracy. Alex Jurel is a veteran social studies teacher who takes his job lightly and is popular because he can identify and connect with students. Alex has been worn down by years of coming between the rowdy students and the demands of the administration. He is assigned to temporarily assume the duties of the school psychologist and becomes a mentor to student Eddie Pilikian. Alex also develops a romance with Lisa, his former student. Herbert Gower is a mental-institution outpatient who has been mistaken for a substitute teacher and placed in charge of a history class that he makes fun, educational and engaging. Sleepy old English teacher Mr. Stiles does not actually teach his students but just hands out worksheet photocopies for his students to complete during class, and he dies unnoticed in his sleep while in class. Gym teacher Mr. Troy has a sexual relationship with a student. Eddie's best friend Danny, a schizophrenic and kleptomaniac student , is shot and killed by the police after he draws a gun during a drug search. Superintendent Donna Burke and school lawyer Al Lewis are attempting to avoid bad publicity associated with the lawsuit. They try to determine which teachers might damage the school's reputation in their depositions. The administration recognizes the threat that Alex poses to their social standing and forces him to resign before his deposition. After Lisa harshly criticizes him, he finally stands up to Burke and Rubell, reminding them that the school exists for the students and not for the administrators. He also threatens a lawsuit if he is fired. He proudly walks back into the school to loud cheers from the students.
