For the Very First Time

This movie is one of my very favorites. It's hard to explain why. Maybe it's the innocence of Corin Nemec and his awkwardness paired with the boldness of Cheryl Pollak, but it definitely has something to do with the soundtrack. Also, some of the characters have little lines or movements or moments that are amusing in and of themselves. Finally, the story is one that always tugs at my heartstrings, and the last scene is so bittersweet. All in all, I love this movie; it's perfect for a gooey, sentimental girls' night.

I was 15 years old when this movie premiered on the television. Being raised in Texas, I understood the boredom & monotony of teenage life there. This movie touched my impressionable teenage heart & I remembered it fondly through the past 12 years. I recently got to see it for the 2nd, 3rd & 4th times thanks the the LOVE channel. I still cry because the movie reaches in & touches my inner confused teenager.

Caught this movie on French afternoon tv. Quite nice to watch like many telefilms. Normally i like films set in a modern time but this 60s yarn with youthful love elements was cool to watch with many twists and kept you rooting for the characters, especially the lead characters. Moved enough to login and write this little review. Best wishes to database users.

I first saw this movie several years ago, when I was still quite young, yet I was deeply interested in the plot line as well as the characters. The age-less tale of romance being torn apart before it has even had a chance is classic, and the makers of this film do a superb job in creating an appealing atmosphere to the viewer. About 6 years after I had first seen this film, I was flipping through the channels on TV and my attention was drawn to the actor who plays Michael - Corin Nemec (a hottie by my standards). The casting and acting in this movie was great. If it had been out in the theaters, I am sure I would have paid my $7 to go see it. My only complaint is (an if you are going to watch the movie for the first time you might not want to read on) that if these two young people were experiencing true love, why would they only have written to one another for one year and stopped?

This made-for-tv disappointment could have been done so much better.Everything was way off. It takes place in 1960, yet 95% you can't tell because everyone talks like it's when the movie was made (1991). The costumes looked very made for the movie while they could have been authentic, and the accents (supposed to be Texan) were non-existent.The acting was alright, but the plot was a bore.Save your time and money and rent something worth watching!!
