A lesser known, to be truthful lesser impressive film from Superstar Greer Garson (who played the infamous Mrs. Miniver) .The story is a simple Greer is first time female teacher in a works full of boys, and in many ways the standout performances are by the children.This film is a tad flat & no strikingly memorable, it's has cute moments but the film is overall rather flat.
