Coloring books have more plot than this movie. The characters are shallow, sheltered, unrealistic, and excruciatingly annoying. It did not age well. Unless it's nostalgic, rent something else.

It occurred to me that I have been watching this movie for over 50 years. It never gets old. It has adventure, romance, and a great plot that leads to an uplifting ending. Good stuff.

Why can't you buy it? Silly that we can only rent it...I like to visit my family in Canada, and while there, can only watch the programs that I own.
