Somehow this book and movie managed to escape me...and I was a big Channel 56'er. Now I am curious.

Yeah, unfortch -- now that Channel 56 is a WB affiliate, you don't get the random weekend movies like that anymore. Another factoid about this film: it was the first to feature the piece that would become known, alternately, as either "Nadia's Theme" or "The Young & The Restless."

fellow 56-er here. loved that movie. i remember the viewing when i finally figured out why the counselor yelled at them that they'd go blind - a bit of my childhood stripped away. the blond kid freaked me out. and you can't go wrong with a theme song by the carpenters. xox, d

Oh holy christ. I loved that too, though I'm guessing I'd hate it now.

Darel Glaser is a good friend of mine. I have been in his community shows for 13 years..known him for over that. He lives in Westchester IL and yes, he directs kids shows...he has extreme talent and I am proud to say I was directed by him. I still talk to him and see him once or twice a year.

If you really want to see this movie in a new way, download it from iTunes. It was never released on DVD. The transfer is great, full screen and it looks like a new movie (set in the early seventies of course). I watched this movie a thousand times as a kid and the downloaded file made me feel like I was watching it for the first time.

Wow. I've never even HEARD of it. The movie OR the book. I feel that I totally missed out.

I am only now seeing this (I don't know how I missed it 5 years ago), but I remember watching this with you often. The first couple of times I remember asking copious questions. You were very nice to me and answered them (unlike how you answered me when I asked questions during Star Wars in the theater when I was 5).
