The English Teacher

Julianne Moore stars in the eponymous role of this comedy drama directed by Craig Zisk.

Linda's simple life gets turned upside down when former star pupil Jason (Michael Angarano) returns to the small town of Kingston, Pennsylvania after trying to make it as a playwright in New York.

With a plan to produce Jason's play at the school, he and Linda must battle with a pessimistic father, a reluctant principal and unavoidable sexual tension.
