Additional InformationAn excellent musical score by the Bee Gees adds appeal to this curious little movie about two ten-year olds, Daniel and Melody (Mark Lester and Tracy Hyde) who are completely taken with each other and announce to their parents, in all seriousness, that they plan to get married. This marriage is not planned for the distant future, but as soon as possible. The uproar that is caused when their seriousness becomes clear is not too surprising. Their best friend Ornshaw (Jack Wild) is not too thrilled with their plan either. What makes the film work is that the entire story is told from the children's point of view in which the grownups' objections, since they have no relation to the truth of what the children are feeling, come across as silly or inconsequential. This film is a reunion of sorts for Oscar-winning Oliver! co-stars Mark Lester and Jack Wild.

Absolutely stunning film, a must to watch.
This film will take you back to a childhood which will be easily recognised by many who have loved and been to school in the early 70’s. A charming story of innocent young love and the special feelings they have found for each other. The Bee Gees music is absolutely spot on giving the film a truly contemporary atmosphere of the 70’s. The script and filming is excellent. A rare gem of a film which has for a long time been neglected but is now finding a true place in movie history. I would recommend a viewing of this film and a purchase would be required so one can have repeat viewings. It is quite beautiful.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

A missed gem.Now a cult classic in Japan.Great.
Has to be one of the best films ever made. An absolute gem missed by the masses. As big as Harry potter in Japan. Just watch it. There is only two qualifications you have had to have been young and in love. "Don't forget to change at Clapham Junction". You only get one go at this in life.Then it's gone never to return. The DVD is good clear picture.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Special Present
I bought this for a friend for Christmas as she had never seen it. She let me know this morning that she had enjoyed it. One of the special things for us that is part of it is filmed in Weymouth where we live. It brings back lots of memories. Thank youVerified purchase: YesCondition: New

First love at age 12.
Have been looking for this film since I saw part of it being made in Weymouth about 1970. Glad it is now available on DVD, including extras of recent interviews with Mark Lester, and the writer, producer and director. It is lighthearted with many funny moments.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
