Tom Brown's Schooldays (2005 TV Movie)
10/10
A great new cast of talent
1 January 2005
A great re-enactment with a good new talented cast. Stephen Fry puts on his role of Jeeves as a rule by the thumb school head master, in an almost Harry Potter type boarding school without the Magic, but with lots of tragedy. Think Dead Poets Society and you will be on the right track. Good classical music scores and lovely sets of British Country Sides and life. A classic television adaption of Thomas Hughes Novel. It is an extraordinary account of life at Rugby School in the nineteenth century, and the vision of Dr Arnorld. The characters are more complex than that that initially meets the eye, but its quite a refreshing change to the usual nonsense on ITV.
