Tom Brown's School Days Reviews
Be careful when you order this title
I ordered this title and received a home made copy on DVD (copied from a VHS) instead of the original as released by Gotham. Be careful.
A LOST CLASSIC
Tom Brown's School Days is one of my favorite movies. I first saw it on local Tv many years ago and was captivated by this classic coming of age tale.
Tom Brown is sent to a private school in order to save from closing. The Dean of the school (Sir Cedric Hardwicke) sees Tom's success as the success of the schoo. Tom becomes a man but finds that the road to manhood is beset with terrible choices. The ending is inspiring and will put a lump in your throat.
If Harry Potter is a modern day Oliver Twist then Tom Brown is the link between them. In fact there are many parallels between this film and "Potter." Both feature British boys becoming men at private schools, fighting off bullies bad guys and bonding with lovabale characters. Tom can't perform magic but he has tremendous courage and lots of heart.
I found this gem on VHS and watched it so many times that the tape broke and I had to buy another one. Now on DVD it'll be mine forever.
