As a teacher I find it especially interesting, as it shows the public what a really fine person a teacher can be and what a splendid influence a good teacher is: The acting is superb, and the story holds the interest from start to finish. There are many very touching scenes. The scenes between Miss Bishop and the founder of the college are a joy." Helen L. Sardy in Film & Radio discussion guide "Charming, sentimental story with many significant overtones. Acting of both major and minor parts superb. Valuable for discussion at all levels. I have some fear that the younger generation will find the picture slow." Edna V.

"Set in the beautiful snow-mantled mountains of the Tyrol near Kitzbtlhl, with winter sports furnishing much of the atmosphere, the story is a light rural romance. Toni Kern, the young village schoolmaster who apparently teaches his youngsters mostly music and skiing, loves Leni Lahntaler, daughter of a local landowner. Her father favors the 'selfmade' owner of the village store, however, and the situation is further complicated by much attention showered upon Toni by a pretty Viennese winter sports enthusiast. "Without revealing too much of the story, which includes a barn fire and several delightful numbers by the Sangerknaben, the reviewer can safely hint that the outcome of the lovers' tribulations is not tragic. . . Rich in authentic backgrounds and characters, as well as enjoyable photographically and musically ... a treat for any audience." Modern language jour.
