To Sir, with Love 1967
Perhaps I don't enjoy this one as much as others do, but I still liked it.
For me, anyway, I found it more interesting as a time capsule of late 60s London (the slang, the music, the fashion) than as a story of a teacher slowly winning over his students.

But, honestly, I would consider it a genuinely good movie whether comparing it to other Star Wars films or films in general.
It's extremely entertaining for one, with dull moments few and far between. I got a…
