Fun Stuff

Quotes:

Miss Dove: William Holloway started out with a gift rarer than mathematical genius or perfect pitch. A child in whom the ethical instinct was as innate as the function of breathing.
Billie Jean: Oh brother! If anyone should ever tell him that, you could drive a truck right between his ears!

Nostalgic film from a more safer world than today, 17 October 2001
6/10
Author: kbruce00 from Bradford England

This is a typically safe 50s film from a more safer world than we have today.It is unashamedly nostalgic as Miss Doves life is recalled in flashbacks. However I can,t help feeling that it is a 2nd hand Goodbye Mr Chips which was magnificently portrayed by Robert Donat. It even steals the punchline from the end of Mr chips about never having had children. Having said that it is comfortable Sunday afternoon viewing with a few strong moments.
