The History Boys is a hugely successful stage play by Alan Bennett which has now been adapted into a film, and there's an exclusive clip online.

The film is about a group of students in an English grammar school who are preparing for their Oxbridge University entrance exams through the guidance of their teachers. It looks at their growing up together and is both comic and tragic.

Have a look and tell us if it interests you. The play does sound very English and I wonder how well an interernational audience will take to it.
