"my copy of the dvd was faded out, so i didnt get to see the glorys of Italy in living color, but i what i could make out is worth the price of admission. this movie was made when american innocence is spelled AMERICAN INNOCENCE. the stars are all incredibly attractive, suzzanne pleshette, is the prettiest i 've seen her and angie dickenson is always dazzling. the story is sweet and entertaining, but the movie is about the senery and the music. the title song al di la is my all time favorite movie song and the theme music through out the film is haunting. the frames of italy are like a series of paintings illustrating the glorius country. buy this, enjoy the nostalgia, the young actors, and the music. also stars al hirt and troy donohue. a for escapism."
