Its Great To Be Young

John Mills stars in this gentle musical comedy portraying life in the 1950s British classroom. Mr Dingle (Mills) is a history and music teacher at the Angel Hill School. His approachability and enthusiasm in running the school jazz band have led to him being well-loved and respected by his students, who go up in arms when it turns out that the well-meaning but traditionalist and authoritarian headmaster Mr Frome (Cecil Parker) plans to replace him and close down the band.
