A vicious high school student is dead. A gang hit? An act of sudden rage? Or did a once-idealistic teacher finally snap? The issues and the tension hit home when Samuel L. Jackson stars in '187', a gritty urban-school thriller directed by Kevin Reynolds.
In one of the most powerful roles in his career, Jackson plays dedicated science instructor Trevor Garfield, a man with a passion for learning. Garfield is skilled, smart, committed, the total package as a teacher. But he's also human. And what he confronts in a school turned increasingly into a battlefield may be more than he can bear. How Trevor copes makes '187' gripping entertainment.
