[@newtoncountry5937]

He was particularly brilliant in this scene. His acting during the song is genius, and he never says a word. When he hears their harmonies and his demeanor changes from irritated & disgusted to surprised and impressed...a lot of actors would oversell that switch, but he does it perfectly. And he keeps it on that same level as walks down the line, then makes a perfect transition back to Joe Clark and marches them to the chorus room. Small things like that are what separates legends like Morgan Freeman from other great actors. There are a lot of great actors, but only one like Morgan Freeman

That's Right 🙋🔥🙋🔥🙋🔥 Mr. Clark wasn't no joke he got them straight up in there. His motto was to shape up or ship out 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥. These schools need someone like him to turn it around now. That school song was sung so beautifully by those young men.

[@jwilliams7554]

Damn that Mr. Clark for playing with everyone’s emotions like that. Ms. Powers was probably thinking she was about to lose her job too. Smh

[@Fermion.]

I feel like he did that on purpose, to see how Mrs. Powers handled pressure. She handled it well, which made Mr. Clark respect her tremendously. He's running a tight ship, and can't have weak links on his staff.

I get tears hearing this. Lord may you return back to our schools in Jesus name and May the power and fire of your spirit burn brighter than ever before. Break and destroy every false, perverse and corruptible seed in the mighty name of Jesus that would try to steal kill and destroy the hearts of this young generation.

Those guys are the best singers on earth.The ACAPELLA when I first hard as a young kid I knew this was the BEST it was going to get and I knew nothing about music behind so young . Here I’m and I still can’t get over it!! The lyrics are beyond BEAUTIFUL and the way they sing it with such emotion and love !! They created a new genre of music(new jack swing) with ACAPELLA which is one of the hardest forms of music to sing. Man black people are GODS chosen.

[@VelmaWade]

Amen! Fell in love with this song when I first heard it! Love this movie! The end results were worth all that had happened before! Hats off to MORGAN FREEMAN! MORGAN REALLY NEED TO BE REWARDED FOR HIS PERFORMANCE IN THIS MOVIE! IS MRS. POWELL STILL LIVING? MRS. POWELL NEED TO BE RECOGNIZED FOR REWRITING THE SCHOOL SONG! This is the most beautiful school song that I have ever heard! HATS OFF TO MRS. POWELL AND THE CHILDREN THAT SANG THE SONG WITH SUCH PASSION THAT SHE TAUGHT THEM! I WOULD LOVE TO SEE MRS. POWELL AND HER STUDENTS APPEAR BACK ON THE SCENE TO SING THIS BEAUTIFUL SONG! MAYBE SHE (POWELL) AND (MORGAN) CAN GET THEIR FLOWERS FOR DOING SUCH A MAGNIFICENT JOB ON THIS MOVIE! Thank you! P.S. IS SAM AND THE STUDENT IN THE MOVIE WHO GOT PREGNANT STILL LIVING? LOVE Y'ALL AND STAY SAFE! THANK YOU!

[@janetbrown6301]

Would not have survived today’s attitude. My son was in all boys high school marching band that required serious discipline and long hours after school. Kids had to do well academically to stay in band. Occasional roughness, maybe grab by the shirt, slapped on the butt, in the face stuff, one got kicked once, but boy were they good and highly regarded throughout out the city, state, country. Kids couldn’t wait to enroll in the school to get in the band. No problem recruiting. Double in size. As time went on band director started encountering next generation of parent, especially mommas. “My child needs to be home by....l’ll file charges if.....” discipline went away, talent went away, size of band shrunk. Kids no longer had desire to be a part of the band. Enrollment started dropping. The mommas wanted their boys in the “great” band, but would not, could not accept the requirements necessary to make the band what it had been.

People don’t understand the power of a figure like Mr. Clark. I went to a HS in a pretty rough part of town and my principal was just like him. Tough, but fair. Would give you lunch money if you didn’t have. Sometimes you could just go to him for a hug and cry if you needed it. That man changed the lives of so many.
