Plot Summary:
|
Based on the new past James Hilton, GOODBYE, MR. CHIPS is the story of a shy schoolteacher who dedicates his vim to his boys. In an Oscar-winning exhibit, Robert Donat plays Mr. Chipping, a juvenile classics scholar en route to his first post at the reputable Brookfield prime. Although his first interactions with the boys go miserably, he remains resolute to develop headmaster. But Chipping is unpretentiously too stuck on propriety to yet mature famous with the students. Depressed, Chipping goes hiking in the Tyrols, where he meets Katherine Ellis (Greer Garson, in her first guard post). The... two meet again on the Danube in Vienna, where they waltz the night away and smooch the first term. Katherine becomes Mrs. Chipping, and she renames him Mr. Chips when they return together to Brookfield. All over time, the charming Mrs. Chipping turns Mr. Chips into an amiable gentleman who is adored by his pupils. But just when the humankind looks its rosiest, the depths of tragedy await Mr. Chips. Directed aside Sam Wood, GOODBYE, MR. CHIPS was one of the most critically acclaimed films of 1939.
