Terri
[DVD]

Description

A moving and often funny film from director Azazel Jacobs, Terri tells the story of a big kid in a small town that doesn't seem to have room for anyone who is different. Deftly combining dark, even uncomfortable elements with wry humour and compassion, it features a memorable performance from Jacob Wysocki as the teenage misfit and Oscar-nominated John C. Reilly as his unconventional high school vice principal. Resigned to outsider status, Terri is surprised when his tough-talking vice principal, Mr. Fitzgerald, takes an interest in him. Although his efforts are sometimes clumsy and at times dubiously professional, under Fitzgerald's tutelage, Terri befriends a pair of fellow misfits. The three teenagers, different on the surface but all outcasts, find an unexpected bond that reflects the tenuousness, poignancy and pathos of the adolescent experience.
