The supporting cast included John Mills and Paul Henried (billed as Paul Von Hernried). The film was nominated for seven Academy Awards, including Best Picture.

Schoolmaster Mr. Chipping, due to a cold, misses a first-day assembly. In his 58 years teaching at the Brookfield public school, he never missed a day. While convalescing, he falls asleep and relives his teaching career. It’s a life filled with many challenges, heartache, and much joy.
