What Parents Need to Know
About The Emperor's Club
Parents need to know that this movie has some mature material, including very strong language, nudie magazines, and a reference to co-ed skinny dipping. Characters drink and smoke. The issue of character and integrity is a theme of the movie.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about Senator Bell's statement that it is his job to mold his son's character, not the school's. In what way did he try to mold his son's character? How was his son like him and how was he different? Is it possible to mold someone else's character? What role does a school play, and what role do teachers play? Who else influences a person's character and values? How much do we create for ourselves? What do we learn from Hundert's reaction to Elizabeth's news about moving away? What do we learn from his reaction to breaking the headmaster's window? What do Hundert and Bell learn from their final encounter? What will your contribution be?
