Girl meets boy.

Boy is a man, considerably aged.

Girl is decidedly pubescent, unmistakably so.

"You look fine. VERY fine", he says with open gaze.

Having watched the other adaptation I expected Judy to be much more eccentric, not like a sunday school regular. I found some parts a tad funny even though it's in no way a comedy, like that moment when she fell of off the horse with the corresponding glitch like animation. Not that it was done well but the dub adds some value ;)

I decided to watch this on Tubi TV. I didn't know it was dubbed until the opening song started.

The dub is a big yikes. I can understand dubbing limitations back in '79 but damn Judy's actor could've put more feeling into the performance. And so could have the other actors.

And the vibes are definitely weird. I feel like I'll enjoy the tv series more than I really enjoyed this. Because honestly I'm sure the series actually develops a lot more than the movie/tv special did.
