Russ G Feb 5 Robert Donat is excellent portraying Chips through an arc of decades, and Miss Garson is lovely in her limited role. Never would have guessed that Paul Henreid had played the German colleague. Stories don't get any more British than this. It's a window into a world that time has passed by. See more Connor S 04/08/2024 Splendidly done story of the impact that a teacher, in any sense of the word, can have on so many generations. See more Leaburn O 08/24/2023 A fairly dry and predictable piece that sentimentalises an old teacher who becomes an institution at a British public school. The character has one great romance and tragedy and that aside there's not much to see here. Made it into the BFI top 100 list. Bought on DVD as not on TV or streaming. See more Georgan G 08/08/2023 This plot is so juvenile that I can't believe people fell for it even in the era it appeared. Mr. Chips was so shy he could barely speak until the perfect woman came along who gave him confidence. I'm a crier if a plot touches my heart but this was too goofy. See more Mark A 01/03/2023 A classic. Robert Donat is wonderful. See more 03/06/2022 Robert Donat gives an Oscar winning performance in what is considered by many to be one of the highlights in a year known to be as the greatest year in movies. Donat plays a beloved teacher at an all boys school. The plot follows him through his life and teaching career. The tragedies in his private life shapes his devotion to his professional life. The film also marks the introduction of a young Greer Garson to American audiences. Though it is a fairly small part she also garnered an Oscar nomination for Best Actress. Though a bit sentimental, the film still showcases a beloved character in a solid film. See more Read all reviews
