This is a family movie of ours. We started watching this about 1978, and in about 1980 I wrote to a local TV station to please air it again. They actually wrote back, and they did air it again! After awhile we were able to purchase a VHS tape, and now if course I have a DVD. My parents are gone now, but every time I watch it, it pulls at my heart. We roared with laughter during every viewing, and feel every actor was perfection!
