About Tom Brown's School Days
In 1830s England, Tom Brown attends a rugby boys' school, where his moral and personal growth is formed through friendship, bullying–particularly from the cruel Flashman–and the influence of headmaster Dr Thomas Arnold.
Directed by Robert Stevenson, Tom Brown's School Days leans on a strong ensemble — Cedric Hardwicke, Freddie Bartholomew, Jimmy Lydon — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1940.
