Goodbye Mr Chips (1939)
Country: US
Technical: bw 114m
Director: Sam Wood, Sidney Franklin
Cast: Robert Donat, Greer Garson, Paul Henreid, John Mills
Synopsis:
A boarding school teacher nearing retirement looks back over his career, his life and loves.
Review:
Donat was the ideal choice for R.C. Sherriff's sentimentalized schoolmaster, because he could do youthful with his relatively high voice, and old and fragile too. Plus, of course, you can believe the kids would love him. And so this remains the definitive version of the play on screen.
