Goodbye, Mr. Chips

1969-11-052h 35mDrama / Music / Romance6.8/10TMDB · 54 votes

Academy Award-honoree Peter O'Toole stars in this musical classic about a prim English schoolmaster who learns to show his compassion through the help of an outgoing showgirl. O'Toole, who received his fourth Oscar-nomination for this performance, is joined by '60s pop star Petula Clark and fellow Oscar-nominee Michael Redgrave.

“He is a shy schoolmaster. She is a music hall star. They marry and immediately have 283 children...all boys!”
