It is very dear to me, as we used to have a record of the songs in the sixties. It isn't a great movie, but it nevertheless thrills me. The Sammy Fain songs are charming, especially the title song, which Pat Boone sings with such velvet warmth. The unusual thing about this movie is its sheer joyfulness. It is one of the happiest movies ever made. Whatever drama there is, is tastefully subdued and underplayed. The movie would have been even better if there had been no drama at all, no plot of any kind. Then it would have been a truly great movie, a vision of paradise without strife and struggle and fear and anger. There is a pleasant phoniness about the movie. At times it is as banal as a soap commercial. The whole movie can be seen as one big piece of kitshorama, as a collection of every cliche: the cherry cheerfulness, the plastic prettiness, the lily-white, youthful, asexual, smiling, upscale, golf course, barbecuing inanity.
