Even if you've already seen a movie before, take a moment and tell us what you think about it, what's good / bad / etc... I'd love to see more conversation around the films we share here.

The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie is a 1969 British drama film directed by Ronald Neame from a screenplay written by Jay Presson Allen, adapted from her own stage play, which was in turn based on the 1961 novel of the same name by Muriel Spark. The film stars Maggie Smith in the title role as an unrestrained teacher at a girls' school in Edinburgh.

I think this might have region-blocking, but I'm not sure of the regions.

Some screenwriters or directors can be... Weird. It can be challenging to figure if they're just telling a story, making a point, exposing something about society, or doing the standard hero's journey.

This seems especially true with dramatic stuff. I feel like dramatists sometimes get caught up in their own vision of drama. If you've ever seen "White Christmas", Danny Kay brilliantly lampoon's this kind of "take yourself too seriously" with the Modern Dance sequence.

Add in this is British 1960's just adds culture gap to the generation gap.

Looks interesting though. Will check it out.
