The movie Lions for Lambs introduced some great themes and provocative situations for aspiring teachers. I believe the political science teacher figure epitomizes what most students would like to see themselves as in the college setting - humble, established, and completely dedicated to the improvement in their students.
Todd reminds me a lot of myself. I am generally quite cynical about government and the workings of our society, although I have some pride and hope for it. But he cares for knowledge that he deems important or worthy. He talks about how he was enthralled by Socrates, Plato, etc.
