| School Ties | comment |
School Ties is a 1992 film about anti-Semitism in a 1950s prep school, directed by Robert Mandel and co-scripted by Dick Wolf.The film has mostly been forgotten (outside of tolerance education classes), and is probably best known now for being the originator of an extremely obscure Family Guy homage. Despite the film's relative obscurity, it does have the distinction of being one of Brendan Fraser's first leading roles, his first dramatic leading role, and one of Matt Damon's first leading roles.The plot concerns David Greene (Brendan Fraser), whose football skills earn him a scholarship at an extremely prestigious— and unthinkingly conservative— preparatory school in the early 1950s. David must keep his Judaism secret while he grapples with the class differences between him and his new peers. | |

Dirty Coward | |
| School Ties / int_1235f055 | comment |
Dirty Coward: The prep school boys, big time. They're used to hiding behind mommy and daddy's big money and big name, rather than face their problems head-on. They also resort to passive-aggressive insults and pranks rather than insult someone to their face and avoid facing David directly, knowing he could easily clobber them in a fight. The biggest instance is when David finds a swatstika in his room, and no one comes forward when he issues a public challenge to the culprit. | |

Greedy Jew | |
| School Ties / int_12dc4d97 | comment |
Greedy Jew: Jokes are made to this extent in David's presence; he tries to ignore them with middling success. Given he's also the token working-class student, it makes even less sense. Not that bigotry ever needs to make sense, as many real victims of prejudice will tell you. | |

Heroic BSoD: After it's already been established that the wealthy kids around David are stressed out by the reputations they have to live up to, McGivern is ridden particularly hard by Cleary during a French recitation, blows it, and has a nervous breakdown. After a day of desperate searching, his friends finally find him in the French classroom, catatonic and mumbling the poem he was trying to recite. He's carted off in an ambulance. | |

Played with regarding Dillon. Before anyone learns David is Jewish, Dillon says he wouldn't care if he went to a school filled with "Jews and Commies," which is a step-up from most other students. It's also made clear he already hated David for his football fame and for wooing his girlfriend, and just outed him to spite him. | |

Ambiguously Jewish | |
| School Ties / int_2be15316 | comment |
Ambiguously Jewish: Though he was obviously Jewish from the start to the audience, David may have come across this way to his fellow students. His very name "David Greene" exemplifies this. The first name David and the surname Greene are both relatively common among Jews, but common enough among Gentiles that nobody automatically assumes someone with either of those names is necessarily Jewish. | |

Bittersweet Ending | |
| School Ties / int_40cc0c7e | comment |
Bittersweet Ending: David is cleared of the cheating charges, and his biggest enemy in the school has been expelled, but he's still a pariah among the majority of the students, he's lost his popularity, he's lost his girlfriend, and he's going to continue facing significant anti-Semitic bullying for the rest of the school year. Still, the film ends on a positive note, with his confident, borderline impertinent words to the headmaster ("You used me for football, I'll use you to get into Harvard") implying he's learned to accept the situation and will no longer allow it to distract him from his goals. | |

Honor Before Reason | |
| School Ties / int_44fc28e8 | comment |
Honor Before Reason: Comes up a bit. David feels honor-bound to answer every insult with a fight, which other characters call him out on. They know how foolish it is for him to jeopardize his one chance to get into Harvard because some schmuck mouthed off. When he realizes Dillon is the one who cheated, he goes to him in private about it to encourage him to come forward; this gives Dillon the chance to sabotage him and make it look like David was the one who cheated. The history teacher who insists on making the cheater come forward or fail the entire class, rather than just throw out the old final exam and make a new one. He claims that since someone in his class broke the honor code, the entire class's honor (and his) is impugned by association until the cheater comes forward. | |

Driven by Envy | |
| School Ties / int_7ae00dcc | comment |
Driven by Envy: Dillon starts out envying David Greene because he got the quarterback position he wanted. After learning more about Greene's life, he outright tells Greene that he envies the fact that his life won't be ruined if he doesn't make it into a prestigious college because he has more to him than just a wealthy family. Then, during a football game with his family watching, Dillon tries to show off, screws up a play and Greene uses him to block a tackle and win the game. It's not until he learns that Greene is dating the girl he loves, though, that Dillon becomes outright hateful. | |

Irony: The class claims Dillon couldn't have cheated since "he had no reason to" due to coming from a Harvard legacy family while David just arrived this year, then proceed to explain they "have" to get into the Ivy League colleges their parents went to; completely oblivious to how they just spelled out why Dillon had more reason to cheat than David. And, of course, there's the rather blatant irony of some of the richest and most privileged teenagers in the country calling out the working-class David as a "greedy Jew". | |

The Scapegoat | |
| School Ties / int_dc8ba6d5 | comment |
The Scapegoat: The Absurdly Powerful Student Council turns David in partly due to Anti-Semitism, partly just to cover for their friend Dillon. They consider David an outsider since he's a working-class scholarship recipient who just arrived this year, while they're all of the same socioeconomic class and have been friends for years. Before the blame was put on David, they also started blaming Jack Connors as the one who cheated. | |

| School Ties / int_f142aaf5 | comment |
Diner Brawl: David gets into one with some motorcycle punks at the start of the film, which serves as an Establishing Character Moment for him. | |

With Friends Like These... | |
| School Ties / int_fdbd6162 | comment |
With Friends Like These...: Most of the prep school boys who befriended David abandon him when they find out that he's Jewish. There's also Sally's friends. Although, she ends up sharing the same sentiment with them in the end. | |

Pet the Dog | |
| School Ties / int_ff7f34c5 | comment |
Pet the Dog: After David is revealed to be Jewish, most of his erstwhile friends turn on him, but ultimately Reece and Connors (after coming to terms with the fact that he hid the truth) accept him as a good person and realize they were wrong. A few other people still treat him decently as well. | |
