A movie about a rescued penguin who proceeds to rescue all the humans around him, without being heart-warming. That's a tough thing to pull off, even if it's set in 1970s Argentina at the beginning of the brutal, murderous military dictatorship. Steve Coogan was perfect as the English teacher who drifted into a hoity-toity boys' boarding school in Buenes Aires, and the penguin should get an Oscar. I never want to say too much about a movie except to say see it or skip it. The Penguin Lessons: See it!
