STRINGS OF FEAR, a bully prevention movie, developed and distributed by the Delaware Department of Justice.
Scott
and his henchmen seem to control the high school as they socially
isolate their targets and steadily escalate their bullying until a
twist occurs which results in a surprise, eye-opening ending.
Powerful,
realistic, and thought provoking, this movie is written by a criminal
prosecutor and emphasizes the important role of bystanders and the
choices they make in the all too real drama of bullying.
"I recommend the movie Strings of Fear,
created by Rhonda Denny, Deputy Attorney General of the state of
Delaware. The performances, shooting, editing, and directing are of
Hollywood quality. The plot avoids obvious ideas and platitudes and the
incidents are clearly based on real ones. I hope the good teachers and
administrators I know are not as rare as the movie suggests. The story
is compelling and the focus on bystanders is superb, accurate, and
important." - Movie Review by Stan Davis - a nationally known author
and speaker on bully prevention http://www.stopbullyingnow.com.
