[@250txc]

There was a time in America where many people were classy out towards the public .. Ms. Gentry was classy.

The movie just didn't capture the magic of her song but that's OK - the song lives on here in 2022.

Thank you Nancy. This was one of my favorite movies ever. Yes, this song will always live in my heart. Love through KZbin we can relive it, no matter how old we are. Did you see her on the Ed Sullivan KZbin channel singing to our troops back then. She was amazing.

@@AnnaPaul56 I was 13 when the movie came out. Loved both the popular lead actors. Still do. I liked the movie. but was not a big fan of the story in the movie, it just didn't feel like the real story about the song, to me. But, still love Bobby and the song. I was so amazed to learn she was married to another favorite of my teenage yrs, Jim Stafford !

I wonder how Bobbi feels about her home town today and the people in it!

Business savvy Bobbie Gentry demanded 10% of the net box office( a multi million dollar payday) and 15% of all future profits from the film( more millions)....
