Goodbye, Mr. Chips

“At The Top Of The Year's "Ten Best" - The picture that earns for 1939 a proud place in motion-picture history!”

Charles Chipping (Robert Donat) wants one thing from Brookfield School, which is to be liked by the boys he teaches. He is shy and nervous in the classroom, and he meets Kathy (Greer Garson), whose warmth begins to change how he sees his work. Sam Wood follows him across decades from the old man's chair by the fire, where he sits and remembers.
