School of Rock .....

The 2nd post in a day ....am I smoking or what .....

But ..just had to .....really ...just had to write about this movie .....'School of Rock'
I might have seen this movie 4-5 times but its playing again now and here I am - hooked on again ...watching the movie ...and writing this blog .....

The movie is about a guy who is a die-hard rock freak and who wants to keep it alive. The hope comes in the form of a class in a school where he is supposedly teaching mathematics (under an assumed teacher profile). From a maths class and nerdy kids to a Rock group who eventually almost win a rock contest - this movie is about that transformation ....and the passion in Rock .....and the fervour to keep it alive.

Jack Black ....is an actor who personifies incredible energy and passion. There is something about him and Rock music. It seems he indeed in real life too is a die-hard rocker - Has sung a couple of covers and even has an album out. An amazing energy is what he brings out on the screen no matter what he enacts.

One interesting trivia about this movie - The Immigrant Song (Led Zep) was for the first time allowed in a movie Soundtrack - it seems the kids and Black pleaded and requested at lenght for the rights for this song ...

I highly recommend this movie to not just Rock maniacs - but to absolutely anybody who loves music ...or who just wants to have a Fun time :-)
