Le Lycée du mensonge

This was not too bad a movie, the story is good and I cared what would happen, Some good acting by most of the cast.

REQUESTING INFO ON SONGS FROM THE MOVIE: I'm not the only one who is interested in the songs from this movie. I've found several others online who were looking for these songs, to no avail. I'm interested in the first song, some of the lyrics are as follows, "everyday is just the same, nothing's ever gonna come my way, as long as I am here, maybe I should just disappear..." It's playing as the main character goes into her father's restaurant.

I watched the credits, and it said, "Coming Down Again" by Matthew Gerrad was the first song. I've searched the Web and YouTube, but found NOTHING! Does anyone know anything about this artist or song? I would love to know anything. The songs in this movie were very well chosen and performed. The artists deserve more recognition than they are getting. Thanks in advance to anyone who answers.

MOVIE REVIEW: My review of the movie pretty much matches the previous review that says, "good start, then fizzles out". That sums up this movie to a T. It had believable acting, and good casting, but for a movie that was supposed to be suspenseful, it seriously lacked the chops. It wasn't unwatchable, (as some of these Lifetime movies are), but about 20 minutes in, it became just background entertainment, instead of something that could keep me watching. Overall, I give it a 6.

This movie made me so emotional and I'm pretty sure it was because of the great acting from the lead young lady Traci as well as the teacher, Mr. Adkins. The teacher had such a gentle and kind demeanor and even though he was being accused of something that we know for a fact he did not do, he didn't overact or become livid or unlikeable. His character was very sweet and it was just so sad what happened to him. The guilt was eating at Traci so much and I think she did a great job as an actress at balancing out her emotions. The villain just set forth such a terrible chain of events that affected so many people. I wanted to see someone slap her right across the face.

Anyway, this movie was pretty well balanced and well acted all the way around. Sure the story has been done before but isn't every story told multiple ways? There's only so much to make a LT movie about so here's another perspective to watch. Very watchable.

There's no mystery to unravel here - we know from the beginning that a spoiled brat concocts false sexual assault allegations against her science teacher, and she has her friend falsely act as a witness.

But whatever, we can't expect artistic conventions from a Lifetime movie. I liked seeing Erin Sanders, who played Quinn on Zoey 101. She's a natural actress here, but was wasted here with this dreadful script.

My gripe is that Traci has zero incentive to lie about the assault, plus she's not being blackmailed by Devon. If there were actual plot twists or an explanation to how Jay carried out his misdeeds, this may have kept my interest going. But it was a soap opera.

This is typical movie about crime, drama, mystery and thriller. Not best acting, and lot details are missing, but it has more details that similar "at 17" movies. Actors are worse than in similar movies, but I can't say they are worst. There is so much details missing that we could not even understand whole story. There is no absolute truth in the end, as there is so much unproven stuff, which stayed unproven even at the end. Lesson is that we should never lie! Or at least to not lie about serious stuff that could affect other people so much. This is one bad story, although resolved, with not so bad ending.
