Product Description:
Ella Bishop is an inhibited girl whose frustrations grow as she approaches womanhood. As a women, her ambitions to teach cause her to lose her only opportunity for true love. Ella's life becomes one of missed chances and wrong choices. As she reaches old age, she reflects back and realizes she allowed the years to go by without achieving what she believes to be her true fulfillment. However, her years have not been without glory, and her moment of triumph arrives when her numerous now-famous students from over the years, return to honor their beloved Miss Bishop. Written by Marc Andreu {mandreu@mediapark.es}
Dedicated Midwestern teacher Ella Bishop is distressed when her fiancé runs off with her vixenish cousin Amy. After Amy dies in childbirth, Ella is left to care for Amy's daughter Hope. Written by Daniel Bubbeo {dbubbeo@cmp.com}
In old age, Miss Bishop reminisces about her life. A dedicated teacher, she spent her whole life teaching at Midwestern College. She never married when her first love married her cousin and another could not get a divorce from his wife. When her cousin dies giving birth, she raises the girl as if she were her own daughter and names her Hope. Throughout her life, she proved to be an inspiration to many students, many of whom move on to great things. On her retirement, many of her students return to say farewell. Written by garykmcd

I bought the DVD of this movie primarily as an exercise in nostalgia. It was a mainstay on local Los Angeles television, enabling channels in the early 1950's to stay on the air until their sign-off time of 10pm or so by showing it repeatedly. All told, as a child I must have seen it close to 100 times.
To my surprise, it holds up remarkably well as romantic melodrama. Martha Scott and William Gargan give affecting performances, as do the various actors playing the wide assortment of ... Read More

This is one of the best classic chick flicks I've sen in a while.

It's a strong showing from the 1940s and very well preserved.

This is the type of 1940s romance film that they don't make anymore. The basic story has been told a billion times but always seems to work.

I'm not sure why they don't use this basic plot anymore in Holywood, because it always makes for an interesting story. Martha Scott used to be a screen legend, but has been forgotten about lately and this is a good film to remind ... Read More

"Cheers for Miss Bishop is one classic that no aspiring actress or fan of Martha Scott should miss. It portrays vividly what a person can achieve through sheer determination.

I personally would recommend this fabulous Hollywood classic to all young ladies who seem to be groping for a meaning in life." ... Read More
