It's all about as much fun as I remember from any of my H.S. English classes.

The late and droll Eve Arden stars in this mediocre film version of her long running sitcom from radio and early TV.

I never knew the series was based on a film. Caught the film over the weekend on MEtv. A nice slice of the 50s. Funny, and all the innocence that went along with those times.

The same cast as in the TV series which makes this movie feel like a good comfort movie. Eve Arden's sharp delivery and the always funny Gale Gordon make this a must see for fans of the TV show.

Terrific! Clever and smart dialogue, very good script! Eve Arden steals the show as Miss Brooks, an assertive, smart, and great high school teacher searching for Mr. Right..Along the way she opens the hearts and eyes of many people including a few suitors but her heart belongs to one, precisely the one that is too shy and fails to disclose to her his real feelings. I have never been a fan of black and white films but I found out about this gem from the Turner Classic Movie (TCM) channel. Based on the hit sitcom and radio series of the mid 50's. Its in black and white and it was a delight to watch.. Very interesting, enlightening and a classic! Now I understand why many people enjoy black and white movies- they were special...Highly recommended!
