This movie was sensational. I would love to have it on tape or to see it every week when I hit a low spot. This movie gives you a giddy feeling about falling in love and having someone there no matter what. How hard is that to find these days? If anyone has this recorded or knows how I can purchase it, please let me know. Thank you!

This movie really got me. I think it's about the best I've seen on the subject of love , loyalty and devotion: the parent's , the boy friend and Josie.
Every time I need an eyewash I watch the last three major scenes. The last one, the dance , is beyond beautiful. I would have loved to watch this movie being made. The director and writer are the best. And Josie , whom I'd never seen before, well, she was superb in her role. All in my humble opinion, of course.

I agree with NUHR whose summary was "Inspirational". It was a truly touching movie. I saw it in 1995, and always remembered it. Recently, I just taped over one of the VHS tapes belonging to my new husband (!), and found the end of this movie on it. I watched the rest, and was so happy to have found it again. It is a moving, real-life story of true, true love. I highly recommend it.
I recently watched a Lifetime TV re-air of Dare to Love and was left with a great and hopeful feeling about love and life. It has very many similarities to Splendor in the Grass with Warren Beatty and Natalie Wood. I saw the latter movie actually after Dare to Love and immediately drew parallels between the two movies. What makes both these movies great is the connection between the main characters--the audience is always aware of the strong love that both Bisset & Gedrick's and Beatty & Wood's characters... in good times and bad. I highly suggest seeing both and compare for yourself as their endings ultimately diverge and differ in terms of audience reaction.
