    A rather stupid teacher at a rather shitty school gets locked in a game of cat-and-mouse with a drug dealer when she witnesses him murdering someone. Naturally, she doesn't tell the police, on the advice of, I think, her boyfriend. She then endangers the lives of her students, although she's lucky enough to have a black kid who seemingly knows everything with her. With all the grittiness and urban knowledge he learned from watching the edited-for-TV cut of _Menace II Society_, director Harry Winer crafts an engrossing look at what happens when stupidity goes too far. He also delivers a searing look at race relations, where white people are useless, Hispanics are either drug dealers or slightly more violent drug dealers, and black people save the white people's asses. He also gives us Alison Brie in very short shorts, so I must give this film a ten out of ten.

Garage Sale Mystery

Jennifer Shannon can always find a diamond in the rough, when it comes to garage sales, that is. Whether it's a new antique to sell at her consignment shop, an Atari game for her son or a piece of furniture for her handy husband Jason to refurbish, she has made a career out of her treasure hunting prowess. When a string of burglaries hits her town, Jennifer's keen eye for detail and her natural problem solving instincts even help her see the connection between these burglaries and local garage sales! Jennifer works with Detective Adam Iverson to investigate her theory that the perpetrators of the burglaries are fellow garage sale regulars. The case escalates to dangerous levels when Jennifer discovers the dead body of her friend. Even though the deceased's husband, Ben Douglas, finds nothing missing in their house, and the police label the death as accidental, Jennifer suspects that the death may be related to the burglaries.
