Summer Under the Stars: Eve Arden

Star of the Day: Eve Arden

Our Miss Brooks (1956) - "A high school teacher has to rescue the professor she loves from his grasping mother."

Eve's got such great comedic timing and looking back at the nature of this movie (and the radio/TV show that preceded it) is a little jarring in terms of the 'spinster teacher grasping at last chances for love', but she's so wry and dry. How can you be anything but charmed watching her?
