Favourite School CP Movie Clips: 13

 

I’ve always kept a place in my heart for Goodbye Mr Chips, the film I must have first seen on television in England in the 1960s. In all honesty it’s a creaky old affair but it contains the first caning scene I ever saw and it comes in at number 13 in my personal all-time favourite school corporal punishment scenes from mainstream movies.

The writers of the 1939 film version by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer British Studios and starring Robert Donat invented the caning scene which wasn’t in the original novella written by James Hilton.

Look out for more of my favourite top 20 movie clips in coming weeks.
