A self-admitted child of middle-class suburbia, I never experienced the prep school life you write about here. But I've taught "A Separate Peace" countless times in my high school classroom, and I've shown the film "School Ties" as a companion piece. "Holdovers" seems to follow suit. I look forward to seeing it, particularly because it stars Paul Giamatti, one of Hollywood's most talented actors. Enjoyable essay, Terry!
