Au milieu des années 1930, dans un collège de jeunes filles d'Edimboug en Ecosse, l'enseignement moderne de Miss Brodie contraste avec la rigueur et la sérieux imposés jusque-là dans l'établissement.
.
« Smith's tour-de-force performance as a school-teacher slipping into spinsterhood is one of several notable achievements in this sentimental, macabre personal tragedy. » (Variety).
« Smith is handed quite the part in the eccentric, trite, purposeful and finally pathetic Jean Brodie, which allows her to play to all her considerable strengths. » (Time Out)
