How about a movie about white kids going to an all black school?


Hollywood won't ever make that movie

They already did. The movie was called Sleepers. In plot - a “chain gang” reform school in Florida in 60s. Filmed beautifully.

I don’t think you would like it but it is a good movie and although it has a similar plot as Sleepers (more violent than sexual on screen that is), it is not necessarily a drama in the same vein, but it is beautifully put together. It is not a school picture. It deserves an Oscar nod.
