Goodbye, Mr. Chips

for the majority of the movie it's like we have a look into a secret part of a man whom no one fully understands, it kind of makes me feel special to be able to appreciate that which most of the characters in the movie can't. by the end of the movie his effect on his students' lives is fully apparent. the largest downside of this movie is the misused aspect of the musical side, it was underdeveloped and simply unnecessary.

Not close to improving anything from the 1939 version, and none of the songs feel integral to the dramatic whole. Productions is careful, and so is the lead performance, but this bears the age old question: Why does this even exist?
