Truth to Power

Teddy Bear filmmakers can return to school

Judge: Let ‘teddy bear’ students return

KNIGHTSTOWN, Ind. – Making a movie in which evil teddy bears attack a teacher got two budding filmmakers expelled from their high school, but a federal judge says it was the school that was wrong.

However, the judge said the boys should apologize.

…The boys worked on the movie “The Teddy Bear Master” from fall 2005 through summer 2006. It depicts a “teddy bear master” ordering stuffed animals to kill a teacher who had embarrassed him, but students battle the toy beasts, according to documents filed in court.</i>

If they play it right, this is a ticket to Tinseltown. Kudos, kids!
