AN EXACT SIMILARITY SOLUTION IS PROVIDED FOR THE MASS TRANSFER FROM A VERTICAL SURFACE TO A FALLING FILM. THE VELOCITY FIELD OF THE ACCELERATING GRAVITY-DRIVEN FILM IS EXACTLY REPRESENTED BY A FALKNER-SKAN TYPE STREAMFUNCTION F, FROM WHICH THE LOCAL NUSSELT NUMBER IS OBTAINED. ACCURATE NUMERICAL VALUES ARE GIVEN FOR SCHMIDT NUMBERS FROM 0.001 TO 1000, WHILE SIMPLE ASYMPTOTIC FORMULAS ARE PROVIDED FOR THE EXTREME SCHMIDT NUMBERS.
