Cheers For Miss Bishop: Review

Sort of a lady's version of "Goodbye Mr. Chips" spanning fifty years in the life of a midwestern schoolteacher, Scott, whose two frustrated romances leave her without hope of marriage and concentrating instead on the lives of her students. This is a visual slice of midwestern life and philosophies from the 1880s. Good direction gets the most out of a difficult assignment. The film earned an Oscar nomination for Best Score.

The church requires that the man cut out any kissing scenes before the movies are shown and the boy is always trying to look at the deleted scenes, which the man keeps in a box. Lots of stuff I don't remember happens in the middle, but the boy grows up and I think he becomes a filmmaker. When the old man dies, the boy — now a man — returns to the village and finds that the man spliced together all the kissing scenes to create a "movie" and left it for him. I remember it being a very moving story and would like to share it with my friends, but I don't remember the title and I... read more
