Movie Reviews of Tom Brown's Schooldays
Movie Review: Tom Brown's Schooldays
Summary: 5 Stars
"Tom Brown's Schooldays" is a cinema gem and a true classic in
every sense of the word.
A British production made in 1951 and based on the classic
Thomas Hughes novel of the same name, it is the story about
Victorian England school life at Rugby School for boys.
Starring Robert Newton and juvenile actor John Howard Davies,
this film is carried by both of these excellent actors who
head an exceptional British cast.
The story tells of bullying, brutality and intimidation of the
younger boys by the older boys which was rife at the school.
It is into this atmosphere that young Tom Brown (John Howard
Davies) is thrust to begin his schooling. Tom soon settled in
making friends and following the routine way of life which
included the good times as well as the bad. The story tells
how Tom eventually overcomes adversity and defeats his
tormentors.
There are two versions available on this DVD - one is in
black and white and the other is a colorized version.
Whilst I have never been a lover of colorized movies, I have
to admit that this color version is remarkable. The print
and sound have been digitally restored to a pristine condition.
A "must have" for all lovers of fine movies.
