Wissenswertes
One of the very first Film4 productions, an offshoot of the UK's then new Channel 4 which essentially revolutionized the British film industry by making a series of relatively cheap films which would air on the TV channel several months after their cinema release. This new style of production brought such resounding successes as Paris, Texas (1984), Brief an Breshnew (1985), Mein wunderbarer Waschsalon (1985), Vier Hochzeiten und ein Todesfall (1994), East Is East (1999) and 12 Years a Slave (2013).

Patzer
When Alan, Ann and Geoffrey walk home from school after rehearsing for the school play, the top deck of a modern (probably late 1970s) double-decker bus is visible at the far end of the alley. In the same scene, opposite the side-road that leads to the alley, is a modern Warboys-design (post-1964) "no cycling" sign.

Zitate
Alan: When I walk past your desk, I breathe in on purpose to smell your skin. It's the most beautiful smell there is.
Ann: It's only Yardley's.

8/10

A young boy's first crush, and maybe, his first kiss.

This sweet, breezy, coming of age/first kiss movie follows the trials and tribulations of Alan "Quack-Quack" Duckworth, a likable young teenager going through his first crush. Set in post WWII Britian, Alan has his public love of Cricket, and his secret puppy-love for classmate Ann Laughton, who barely tolerates his existence. And just as Baseball (or Cricket) can throw you a curve ball, Alan gets his curve ball in the the form of an iron-clad opportunity to kiss the girl of his dreams. But will "Quack-Quack" be able to step up to the plate and fulfill his dream? Well, get a hold of this little gem of a movie and find out. Great supporting cast of his Teacher and Headmaster, his schoolyard chums, and Tommy the Groundskeeper , whom Alan admires, but whom might throw Alan yet another curve ball. All in all, an entertaining movie that I highly recommend.
