One Of The Best!

I absolutely love this particular episode,it's probably my favorite of the scores of great TWILIGHT ZONE offerings. It has no real twists or turns as one expects from the show,it's just a sweet,sentimental story that manages to hurt me every time I view it. Forty-two year old Donald Pleasence gives a great performance as Ellis Fowler,an older professor being discharged from his teaching position,which clearly is his entire life,what he lives/loves to do. He learns a little later that his assumed small contribution in the classroom spread much wider than he ever knew. I've read it was Pleasence's first American television appearance.
