He’s the man who puts the high in high school.

Bryan Cranston (the father from Malcolm in the Middle) is a chemistry teacher struggling to make ends meet who discovers he has lung cancer. Deciding to make money while he can for his disabled son and pregnant wife, he turns to cooking. Crystal meth, that is, with an inept former student turned junkie. A shining central performance is backed by afine cast and finely tuned writing for a drama that is in turns despairing and hopeful.
