The Happy Years (1950)

£0.00

(The Adventures of Young Dink Stover)


Country: US
Technical: bw 86m
Director: William Wellman
Cast: Dean Stockwell, Darryl Hickman, Leo G. Carroll

Synopsis:

The son of a New York family in the 1890s raises hell at his preparatory school, until a teacher changes his mind about things.

Review:

Excellent schooldays period piece with the lush MGM treatment, bright, energetic music and direction and some great playing. As in The Browning Version the nostalgic evocation is gripping, but this is lighter. Stockwell is spirited, snooty but not obnoxious.
