Review of Summer of '42

Summer of '42 (1971)
7/10
Sweet and enjoyable
29 December 2001
A very sweet film, featuring characters we can identify with. Coming of age is an issue that only a few times has it been tackled with so seriously in a movie; the excruciatingly long scene in the drug store and the poetic love scene are fine examples of the director's delicate approach to the teenagers viewpoint of the world. Good acting and beautiful photography.
