My Teacher's Wife

REVIEW
Boy falls in love with tutor, who just happens to be the wife of his vile math teacher. A tired formula to be sure, but a fun and likable cast makes My Teacher's Wife an upbeat lark. There are a few love stories to one's interest, as London leaves his girlfriend in the lurch as he figures out what he wants out of love and life. Orth as the third member of their friendship adds levity (as a horrible goalie) and pathos (as a budding romantic). Though the events are predictable, the characters seem genuine in getting there. Bill Plympton animates the scene breaks.
