What happens

Our Miss Brooks is a 1956 American comedy film starring Eve Arden, Gale Gordon, Don Porter and Robert Rockwell, based on the radio and TV sitcom hit on CBS of the same name. Directed by Al Lewis, who was the chief writer for the radio and TV editions, and written by both him and Joseph Quillan, the film disregarded the past four years of television and started with a new storyline. It was distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
