I saw this film for the first time on TV during my Senior year of high school when most girls are dreaming of finding "Mr. Right". It was so wonderful to see such a wholesome love story...especially with a girl that really wasn't much older! Every woman who loves a good romance will adore this movie!

I realy like Karen Valentine, and was glad to see this available, however, this release is poor quality. Soft and contrasty. There is quite a bit of tearing in the screen durring bright scenes. (week sync signal and out of adjustment) Absolutely no effort was taken to make this a decent product. It looks like an amature transfered it using a very cheap comercial machine with a 3rd generation copy.

This movie is real cute! The age stuff was a bit confusing for someone my age-like him with his "39th" birthday, but it fits in good with the plot of the movie. It's a lot fun to see what stuff was like in the 70s like clothes, cars, bikes and more! If you're looking for a cute and kind of cheesy movie to pass the time this is the one to get!!

The movie must have been re-released after the Farrah explosion as it lists her in a star role but she is actually in the film all of 3 minutes. LOL! The movie itself is way too cutesy for me & very unrealistic- but the 70's clothes & styles are fun to watch.

I've always been a fan of Karen Valentine. This is a slightly more mature theme for her, but she still holds that innocence as in her Room 222 series. The plot molds well around her character's personality and Richard Long's interaction with her made the movie very enjoyable.
