Stereotypes are broken, the underdog finally wins., 6 November 2002
9/10
Author: weaslesneeze from USA

Scandal in a Small Town takes the typical stereotypes of the characters and expands them to human levels. Empathy for the cocktail-waitress single mom only grows as she nutures her relationship with her teenage daughter and single-handedly takes on the entire town and school board over an obviously overlooked major history error and horrible history teacher. This movie sensitively portrays the strife she endures to continue her fight to do the right thing.
