Customer Reviews

Robert Donat is believable.

The filming location for the “Brookfield School” is Repton School, Repton, Derbyshire, England, UK. This is the story of the 60-plus-year life of a school teacher, Mr. Chipping (Robert Donat), from neophyte teacher to hopefully Head Master. On his way, he will make several mistakes and learn from them. The movie has the feel of several stories running in series that all tie into Chipping’s life. He is also destined to meet the love of his life, Katherine (Greer Garson), and see that the Danube is blue. I do not want to go into detail as that is the fun in watching the story unfold; however, I think it is significant when Chipping and Katherine are alone on the top of the world and time stops, finding themselves in eternity. He also gets an insight into or different slant of his career.
