Tom Brown's Schooldays



I got this two disc set from Netflix, Tom Brown's Schooldays 1971.  Disc One arrived in the mail first and we watched it right away and fell in love with the character of Tom Brown that when the second disc came in we were so excited that we could finally finish watching it, two days of impatiently waiting to see the rest of it were over.

Anthony Murphy played Tom Brown and what a fantastic job he did, Tom Brown is a sweet and lovable and kind and brave child.  All the characteristics any mother would be proud of.  All the acting in this series was superb, especially the villains.  They made you hate them!

After researching Anthony Murphy to see what other things he's acted in or what he's currently up to, I found out that he's quite an accomplished artist.  What a treasure!  Anthony creates portraits and landscapes and still life, works that are Impressionistic and  full of life and color.  VeryVan Gogh, Cezanne and Gauguin like.

Isn't his work amazing?  I'm in love with his paintings, they are wonderful.
