Melody (S.W.A.L.K.) - Mark Lester, Tracy Hyde, Jack Wild (NTSC all regions)

I really enjoyed this sadly forgotten film from the 1970s. It was fun to see Mark Lester and Jack Wild three years after making "Oliver Twist."

I put it in Blue Ray player and it worked flawlessly

Have long desired a copy of this film as I am a Bee Gees and Jack Wild fan. I think this movie definitely deserves the Criterian collection treatment, but till then, this copy definitely fits the bill. I believe Jack Wild's performance in Melody is his best ever. The songs are from the Bee Gees Odessa period and add sweet atmosphere to the superb juvenile actors and story. An indie gem.

I remember watching this movie on the Sunday afternoon movies on television when I was a kid. There was something about the feeling of this movie that absolutely always appealed to me. I have looked for it for years, but could not find it in mass release. I have read other reviews here about the poor quality of this particular release, but I found it not to be too bad, really. There were a couple of little 'glitches' (like a digital skip, of sorts), but it mostly just seemed like an old movie, with some hissing and some cracks & pops. Nothing that really bothered me tremendously. I have to say it took a good week before it even shipped out, which was disappointing from Amazon which is usually very fast. But the movie quality was acceptable, and an overdue walk down memory lane!

I saw this movie when I was 11 when I thought I was so in love with a pretty girl in our neighborhood. This movie elaborates that innocent feeling of love from your childhood days. The music score by the Bee Gees was a perfect fit. Melody, to me, is the best movie about childhood crushes and innocent love...puppy love!Mark Lester and Tracy Hyde were perfect for their roles.

!!!! IT IS OK!!!! based on other reviews I almost did not get it, I realize this is not a studio remake but who ever made this transfer it did a fair job I saw it in my HD tv and my copy was ok, like I said it may not be HD but if you are craving to see it again it will be more than enough.

Amazing songs and feel-good movie...lot of innocence in it. I am glad I bought it.

I love this movie but didn't notice when I purchased the movie that it was subtitled. I have returned it.
