They don't make 'em like this anymore

This is the first movie I saw as a teenager that adequately captured the feeling of a first crush on an adult. The friendship between Gil and Val is both sweet and enduring, and I only wished I had been so fortunate.

The ensemble cast is superb and the humor is as funny today as it was then. I wish there were more movies like this!
