Critic Reviews
This happens in 1961, when 16-year-old girls were a great deal less knowing than they are now. Yet the movie isn't shabby or painful, but romantic and wonderfully entertaining.Read the full review
This is a performance, and a film, to cherish for this year and always.Read the full review
