I remember when I saw for the first time this movie on Argentinian TV. I was only 10 y/o. About three days ago chatting with a friend we remembered this film. Thanks to Internet I had the chance to see it again."Melody" shows two kids (Melody and Daniel) that are dealing with school. Things happens and they became closest friends... and more. But their love is brilliantly exposed, focused on the "child" belief. Excellent songs of Bee Gees, stories that reminds our childhood, "love" as an "innocent" and good thing, you will not be disappointed with the locations, script, and the solid interaction between Daniel and Melody.A kind of movie that nowadays does not exist. What a beautiful piece of art.
Gem is right. Not only not re-released, not digitally remastered, no remake, no IMAX. Watched it in El Salvador, 1977, 11:00 PM, in one of the 3 TV channels at the time, before disco made monsters out of the Bee Gees. Now, 34 years later, it runs like a fairy tale, for one thing, seeing a girl being sent to a bar (The Ship) to get change from her father and not getting slapped. The dance scene was a replica of my own experience. I might share the feeling with other reviewers wondering why this movie is not known more widely as are movies about children from a bitter adult point of view (Los Olvidados, Pixote, My name is Ivan, etc.) If I had to choose a companion to show it in a double feature: "Pretty Baby", hands down.
Melody is possibly one of the most enjoyable, endearing pieces of cinematic art, ever. It's a gentle, tender story of innocent love between two 10 year olds who manage to overcome all sorts of barriers, including class differences, condescending adults, and incessant teasing and harassment from other children. Melody is a movie that you can watch repeatedly without ever tiring of it. In fact, if anything, it becomes more enjoyable as the viewer becomes more aware of details that he or she may have missed in previous viewings. There are no explosions, no one gets killed, and there isn't any objectionable language at any point in the film. In short, it's a wonderful film, suitable for all ages. I am a great fan of Melody, and highly recommend it for everyone.
