Ryan Gosling goes out strong with an Oscar-nominated turn as a crack-addicted middle-school teacher whose life is on the verge of absolute collapse, and whose only hope might be one of his pre-teen students…if only she can avoid a life selling crack on the street to scumbags like him. It’s a very Measuring Flicks Christmas Special with very special guest Cassandra Crose! It’s 2006’s…HALF NELSON.
