Something like this actually happened in my junior high. A teacher got a little too physical with a boy - which led to the boy's father getting a little too physical with the teacher.

Been there, done that.Over 50 years ago now, but I still have a warm satisfaction from the memory. My son had great welts on his hands because he was having difficulty with multiplication. The teacher was too ashamed to take it further and my son became a computer genius. :) This out take reminded me.

Note the grins on the faces of the two boys immediately behind Huw at 1:21, after Dai Bando demonstrates the proper method for throwing a right hand. I'll wager they had dreamed of laying out Mr. Jonas just like that after receiving one of his sadistic canings.

Yeah, even better than Citizen Kane (Ford got the Oscar same year)

I had a teacher who pulled my hair. Never told my parents. If a teacher tried to pull hair that belonged to one of my kids, that teacher would be soon scalped. I might spare the fingers, but I'd leave that to the occasion.

Orson Welles said that there was only one poet of cinema - John Ford. If I had to take one film with me on a deserted island, it probably would be How Green is My Valley. And if I could take just one musical, it wouldn't be Singing in the Rain. I'm tired of the official lists of the greatest this or that. Film is a visual art but such lists blind people to real beauty.

"I'm afraid he will never make a boxer..." Ha ha ha LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Stand out scene from HOW GREEN WAS MY VALLEY. The cruel teacher, Mr. Jonas, had been hitting the school kid Huw Morgan (Roddy McDowell) with the rod frequently and when these Welshman boxers heard about it they came to class one day and delivered payback. Notice how the boys really took to the demo as they had no doubt suffered from frequent beatings as well.

In the book, it was revealed that Mr. Jonas was Welsh, but ashamed to admit it. He took out his hatred of his own heritage on Huw. After Dai Bando and Cyfartha had their 'discussion' with him, Jonas treated Huw fairly. When Huw completed his studies at the National school, Jonas wished him well.

fantastic captures the humour of the welsh and of all the great british isles, and the way the teacher dosen't listern fab. the point is there is always someone better than you bigger than you to bring you down to earth.

When Dai Bando says "Knowledge" you know that Mr. Jonas is going to learn a lesson the hard way!

Filmed on set in the Santa Monica mountains, California. Rhys Williams, in his first movie, its only Welsh actor. He died 28 years later in 1969, in Santa Monica.

I bet the teacher wasn't English. The Welsh were renowned for teacher training colleges, Bangor, Harlech, Aberystwyth, Lampeter, Carmarthen, Swansea, Cardiff, Caerleon. Welsh teachers went out throughout the British Empire and beyond. If you look on the lists of the county boards of education in Wales you'll notice that the names are overwhelmingly Welsh. Just as Mr Jonas was Welsh abd a Welsh speaker in How Green Was My Valley. It was Welsh teachers and Welsh Boards of Education that created the Welsh Not and caned children for speaking Welsh.

Dear Sirs This is quite a fantastic film, stylish, elegant and classical, i heard about it when i was a teenager, the truth is that i've been to Cardiff in Wales, recently and i didn't like the city that seemed frankly ugly, i must of spoke of this film in the hotel near the train station, but i don't find they knew it, and it is a shame, as this is a very striking film. P. Rose/ M. Lapa

My late Mother-in Law Ida LLoyd- McDonnell (God Rest Her Soul) was born in Liverpool, England, but raised in Galway, Ireland (Balinasloe) in an orphanage. She spoke many times of a stern schoolmaster Herbert Arthur Weir who would cane her and the other students as he saw fit. He would tell them to hold their palm's out for him to hit, but he wouldn't let you close your eyes. He would make you watch. She referred to him as "A handsome evil bastard."

This happened with George Harrison when he was a kid. A teacher hit him and the next day his dad came in to class and punched the teacher!

Brilliant. No more no less

It happened in my school when I was very you the headmaster got in terrible trouble, he beat a class mates, his dad was a sailor was at sea a lot mistake the headmaster made he left marks and second the sailor man was home, maybe one of the most terrifying moments of my life, he pinned him to the wall the sailor was three times his size, he took the cane and broke it across his back, headmaster was taken home, it never happened again, can still hear the shouting decades late, I can concur both men are long dead now.

This is one of the worst movies ever made. John Ford's idea of Wales is laughable. His pits are on the top of mountains, rather closer to the seams in the valleys. The interiors of the tiny miner's cottages, are spacious and luxurious. All too clean and scenic. Some Welsh folks are tone deaf too!
