I too loved this movie. I saw it on television as a kid and fell in love with it, but always thought the movie title was April Showers... I knew Jeanne Crain starred in it. I've seen it played on classic movie channels on occasion, but not often enough. It is very nostalgic and fun loving and I think it is great for young girls to see - let them compare it with the struggles they have in finding true romance today. It also portrait a good mother/daughter relationship where they share their feelings - pretty good for not having seen the movie for about 5 or 6 years, right. I would love to buy the movie, but have never been able to find it on VHS or DVD. Does anyone know if they will ever put it out on DVD?
I watched this movie with my mother as a child and have loved it ever since. The fact that it's not available on Video or DVD is a shame. I keep my eyes peeled for it on TV but have not come across it in years. The song "A cup of coffee, a sandwich and you" sticks with me and I find myself humming it occasionally. This is one of those movies where things like that song and the underwear scenesk stick with you forever. Jeanne Crain is wonderful and is a young actress from this era of film-making that I adore. She also happens to be in another of my favorite movies "Meet me in St. Louis". Her appeal is lasting and stands the test of time.
Hello, I enjoy this movie every time I am lucky enough to see it on television. I first saw this movie in 1946 when I was 9 years old. I live in Reno, Nevada and this movie was filmed in Reno in 1945. The actor, Conrad Janis, who plays the College boy, Johnny, became Mindy's father on the television series "Mork and Mindy" in the early 80's. He was so cute! Thank you for listening.

One of my favorite movies from the 1940s. Crain plays Margie with such sweet, believable, awkward conviction; her goofily repressed homelife & "bad girl" best friend & various boyfriends round out this story in an unforgettable way. The music is poignant & tuneful & perfectly suited to the storyline, the humor subtle & sly & ever-so-slightly off color, in a way that is completely inoffensive. A joy of a movie!
