Review of School Ties

Given the current climate in America's higher learning system, I felt it was appropriate to watch this today when it popped up on TV. A little dated and the themes are delivered with a heavy hand, but oh, what a start for some of cinema's brightest stars of the (then) future! Matt Damon and Brendan Fraser offer glimpses of their skills to come, but Ben Affleck (Damon's cinematic partner in crime) was nothing more than background filler here.
