On television, it's night in The Free Peoples World-Tree Library. All the librarians are asleep, tucked into their coffins, their scabbards, priest-holes, button holes, pockets, hidden cupboards, between the pages of their enchanted novels. Moonlight pours through the high, arched windows of The Library and between the aisles of shelves, into the park.
– Kelly Link, Magic for Beginners

Goodbye Mr. Chips (1969)
A shy, withdrawn English schoolteacher falls for a flashy showgirl. (imdb)
Completely delightful film! Having never seen the original version with Robert Donat, or read the book by James Hilton, I can't say if this is the best adaptation. But I loved it! This one is a musical, and at first I wasn't sure how that would work in a story like this, but it ended up adding an intensity to the film I wasn't expecting.
Petula Clark is wonderful as the actress turned headmaster's wife, and her voice is so lovely. "You and I" especially is so moving! But Peter O' Toole is the one that really shines as the teacher who is dull as ditchwater, according to his students. But his transformation over the film is wonderful to watch.
The cinematography has a dreamy feel and the scenes in 1920's Pompeii are stunning to see.
Romance rating: ♡♡♡♡♡
