my favourite line in the entire movie 'once my legal obligation to look after your best intrest is removed i can be one truely nasty fucker' LEDGE of a teacher!
Had a teacher similar to Gilbert in school, nothing he said in this manner was serious, but he would just talk to us like mates and we all truly respected him for it
@@shaunhunterit342 he spoke to us the same way Gilbert would but it was all banter, like my mates would give eachother shit, and he would speak to us in the same manner. He wasn't actively trying to talk down to us or insult us like Gilbert
Now if only my principal was like this. Instead of banging on about his holiday and about how it 'brought him closer to god' in some stupid way. It's nice when teachers know we aren't listening to anything they say and actually strive to make it interesting.
The delivery of this scene from Greg Davies is genuinely incredible, I’m almost convinced he went in for a different role and they decided to write an entire character that otherwise wouldn’t work with a worse actor
I remember watching this when i was 16 in a sold out cinema when it came out and i was helpless with laughter at this scene, to the point where my mate told me to pull myself together and get a grip etc. But the "One Truly Nasty Fucker" moment; i completely lost it......
I do like how there’s never once a scene where the boys get a victory against Gilbert in this film, considering it goes out of its way to throw the boys a bone at everything else. They win against a bully, they get girlfriend, they get acknowledged as cool during the little montage. Much as the second film gets flak, it at least stuck true to the show that the boys are losers
I wouldn't say this is what most high school principals/headmasters probably really think during graduation, I would say that he/this is just Exaggerated for the sake of there Being Humor for this Comedy.
Gilbert was probably:mentally-abused in his youth? In Sixth-Form (16-18),the teachers treat the kids as adults,not as kids & they even swear in front of them,but not in a presentation,like this,as its unprofessional & thats probably why that other teacher got up,to challenge Gilbert on his language. So yes the swearing on stage is exaggerated for the sake of comedy,but teachers swearing & making rude jokes, allowing pin-ups, (In sixth-Form) is very realistic,indeed.
