High school senior David Greene is given the opportunity of a lifetime when he receives a scholarship to the prestigious St. Matthew's Academy. He leaves a depressing Scranton, PA for the sprawling Massachusetts campus and immediately hits it off with his roommate and football teammates. He also catches the eye of a pretty blonde. All seems to be going well until they find out David's Jewish. He quickly becomes the campus pariah and the scapegoat when it's discovered someone cheated on an exam. When he goes to confess, David discovers one of his peers exposed Charlie Dillon as the real cheater to the headmaster. He then calls Matt Damon a prick.
School Ties is an excellent film but unfortunately a stellar cast, many who would springboard to stardom, couldn't put it on the dean's list of 1992 movies. The film didn't quite make back its budget and quickly left theaters.
