...difference is the presence of an inspiring teacher. But Pierre Dulaine (Banderas) isn't a tough-talker in the Stand and Deliver or Coach Carter mold.

Part of the thrill, she says, is that whether it was getting mold off the edge of the bath or nail polish off the sheets, they've done it with products that cost next to nothing and were likely already in the kitchen cupboards.
