Melody is a 1971 British film about "puppy love." This romantic fantasy was unique in that it told the story through the viewpoint of the children. One day, Daniel falls in love with Melody Perkins and announces to their parents that they want to get married. Not sometime in the future, but now. However, the adults, parents and teachers alike try to dissuade them. Their classmates are determined to help them. In a far place they marry the couple. Their parents follow them and try to stop it. The children go wild and make a car explode. Melody and Daniel run away in a handcar down the railway line. They are only 12 years old when they marry.
電影裏有這樣一段對話: Melody:五十年有多長? Daniel:150個學期不包括假期 Melody:我想你不會愛我那麽長 Daniel: 我會的,我不是已經愛了你整整一個星期了? 畫外音:這樣的愛情真會last 50 years? First of May 裏唱道:Someone else moved in from far away. 也許這個someone else將會改寫這個故事的續集。。。
