A Curious Man (2014)
A probing, intimate documentary into the innovative Middle Ages methodology Peter Richards uses to teach 4th and 5Th graders at The Paideia School in Atlanta. This story chronicles his quirky collections, his experience as an adult with attention deficit disorder, his love for wood, fires, working with the homeless and playing the banjo. A Curious Man weaves a personal story yet a much larger tale: that of education, mental health and class within the American landscape.

Reviews
good back-story, and good acting
It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
The movie really just wants to entertain people.
