Summer Of '42
1971年のアメリカ映画「#おもいでの夏」テーマ曲
Theme song, Hollywood movie 'Summer of '42 ' (1971, USA)
Feelings of the summer of ’42 that's passed ... First Love.
Unforgettable 'Sweet and sour sentiments' that like a swaying and shining light ... Still now, one summer bittersweet loves reminiscence brought back in to my mind.
Sentiments de l’été 42 passé... Premier Amour.
Des « sentiments aigres-doux » inoubliables qui ressemblent à une lumière ondulante et brillante... Encore aujourd'hui, un été, la réminiscence des amours doux-amers me revient à l'esprit.
Sentimentos do verão de 42 que já passou... Primeiro Amor.
Inesquecíveis 'sentimentos doces e azedos' que gostam de uma luz oscilante e brilhante... Ainda agora, num verão agridoce, reminiscências de amores trouxeram de volta à minha mente.
The Summer of '1942.... Because, still under wartime... a boy was evacuating to the island and having boring days. But one day, Boy meets a fascinating woman on this island ... It was a lovely older woman. This is the story of Fresh love that spelled the encounter and farewell of a boy of one summer.
I watched to dazzling charm of Jennifer O'Neill that playing a lovely older women, That time, that for too much lovely I was forget me, and forgot to pass to time!
And Gary Grimes playing adolescent boys attracted to beautiful ladies was also a wonderful natural acting.
And, than anything the appeal of this movie was Michel Legrand's soundtrack .
The song composed of interwoven with string instruments such as violin and wind instruments was a delicate, deep, very sentimental and beautiful music.
The theme song of this movie
'Theme For Summer Of '42 The Picasso Suite'
'The Summer Knows (End Title Theme From Summer Of '42)'
Please enjoy with beautiful Michel Legrand theme song.
1942年の夏...まだ戦時下でした、少年は島に避難して退屈な日々を過ごしていた。 しかし、ある日、少年はこの島の魅力的な女性と出会う。それは素敵な年上の女性だった。 これは、ある夏の少年の出会いと別れを綴った初々しい愛の物語です。
私は美しい年配の女性を演じるジェニファー・オニールの眩しいほどの魅力を見ました。その時、あまりにもチャーミングな為、私は我を忘れ、時間の立つのを忘れてしまった！
そして美しい女性に惹かれた少年を演じているゲイリー・グリームズも素晴らしい自然な等身大の演技でした。
そして、何よりもこの映画の魅力はミシェル・ルグランのサウンドトラックでした。
ヴァイオリンや管楽器などを織り交ぜた曲は、繊細で深く、非常に感傷的で美しい音楽でした。

Anyway , she became a school teacher, and was married year's later to a guy 5' 5" GO FIGURE! but year's passed, and one day she showed up at my front door, we had a long courtship, and it was the most romantic time of my life! We never married, I moved away, but not a day goes by I don't think about her!

Jennifer O'Neill (born February 20, 1948)[2] is a Brazilian-American author, model and former actress. Born in Brazil, and moving to the United States as an infant, she first came to prominence as a teenage model, as well as for her spokesperson work for CoverGirl cosmetics, which began in 1963 and spanned three decades. She made her feature film debut in the comedy film For Love of Ivy (1970), followed by a lead role in Howard Hawks's Western film Rio Lobo (1970).

I remember seeing this film when it was released in ‘71. I was just about Hermie’s age and, damn, did I ever want to fall in love with someone who looked like Jennifer O’Neill. I was captivated by this movie - the storyline, the score, the beauty of a woman out of my reach - at 14 or 15 years old, I had no idea what falling in love was, nor would I until four years later when I met a girl my own age who stole my heart and broke it shortly thereafter. I’ve been fortunate to have been married for over forty years to the woman who made my life worth living, but hearing this theme music and watching this clip brought me right back to that time of teenage angst and sadness over losing at love for the first time. Time heals all, but the scars remain.

[@lemikeyles]

When they reach puberty, young people start to become conscious of the women they admire. And this movie was made based on the experience of the original author. That's why I think this movie and music strongly appealed to these young people and was shared. (It was able to empathize and see it according to my experiences and situations in the story) And most of all, I got the perfect actress for the role of the heroine, and also got a wonderful theme song. 'A bittersweet experience of fellowship with a longed-for woman', Is may be proof of the life lived by an immature and man who was young.

Michel Legrand's music composition for the film 'Summer of '42' is WONDERFUL. Jennifer O'Neill had a delicate Beauty.

[@lemikeyles]

If, it wasn't for Michel Legrand's music. And if, the heroine wasn't Jennifer O'Neill. Probably, this movie wouldn't have been so evaluation. Those two points are the decisive points for the evaluation, i think a lot of people think that.

[@gateofdreams]

This movie captured a moment in time (like most movies do) in which America was more like America. The quiet strength of the narration of this man and his coming of age is as beautiful as the entire soundtrack by master composer Michel Legrand. A gem from wherever point of view you look at it.

[@lemikeyles]

The boy in this movie has grown as a person through the precious experience of one summer. You can see it in the boy's conversation and action in the movie and the grown-up boy's narration at the end. And above all the life-size acting of the boy and the heroine is natural and exquisite. The silent scene where the two spend the silent without talking is beautiful and very delicate atmosphere and overwhelming. And All I hear is the sound of waves...The bluish soft focus image was really beautiful. It's not a big-budget movie, but it's full of poetry, and the actors, director, and music are all excellent. my all time favourite!

72歳の爺です。 映画「思い出の夏」 私は昔、この美しい曲のほうを初めに知りました。ステレオを聴いていてその旋律に引き込まれた。 映画音楽である事を知り、後年ビデオレンタル店が出来はじめ、レンタルし自宅で観た。当時、レンタルビデオはまだVHSの磁気カセットテープだった。 映画を観終えて非常に感動した事を思い出す。 ストーリーの出だしは、老人の追憶のナレーションから始まった。彼がまだ思春期の少年で、海辺で過ごした夏の日の思い出だった。 1942年と言えば昭和17年。太平洋戦争の真っ只中である。 少年は友達と3人で波の打ち寄せる海辺の一軒家の近くで遊んでいた。 その一軒家に若いカップルが暮らし始め、幸せそうに暮らす二人を少年は見つめている。 少年はその女性に淡い憧れのようなものを抱くようになってゆく。 ある日、カップルの男性に兵役の知らせが来る。 彼女は一人、海辺の一軒家で彼の帰りを待つことになる。 少年は一人暮らしの彼女の家事の手伝いなどをしながら知りあってゆく。 ある日、少年が一軒家を訪ねると彼女は涙に暮れている。 彼女の彼が戦死したのだ。 それを知った少年もショックをうける。 ここで映画のクライマックスを迎える。 彼女は悲しみのあまり、自分に憧れのようなものを抱くこの少年を誘うのである。 誘われるまま少年は性に目覚める。 翌日、一軒家を訪ねるが彼女は忽然と姿を消してしまっているのである。 ドアーには「立派な大人に成るように・・」との置き手紙が挟まれていた。 何とも、淡い切ない幕切れである。 ミッシェル・ルグランのこの美しい旋律は、ストーリーその物であり、神秘的な出だしからクライヤマックス。そして哀愁のエンディング。 人は洋の東西を問わず、老いと共に昔を忍ぶものだという事が、私もこの歳になって解るようになった。 この映画は若い時に観ても感動するが、老いてから観ても又 違った感動を受ける映画ですね。

[@lemikeyles]

KZbinの統計データによると、この映画に心を惹かれ、愛着を感じているのは圧倒的に男性です。しかも年齢層が高いです。この結果をどう解釈すればよいのか？ 私なりに考えてみました。時代背景は別にして、この物語に波長が合い、取り込まれてしまう視聴者の男は、自分の人生の中の一瞬の燦めきやほろ苦い青春の花火のようなものを、この映画に重ね、感傷的に追憶しながら視聴しているように感じています。 だから、多くを語らない物語の展開の中には、清楚なヒロインと少年の淡い触れ合いと気持ちの交わりが、その全てになっています。言い方を変えれば、「この映画に反応してしまう男は、とてもピユアな感性を持ち合わせている」ということでしょうか。 永遠に記憶される ひと夏の想い出、「おもいでの夏」は、名作ですよね。

[@user-ku2tr5uy1s]

72歳の爺です。 ご返信ありがとうございます。 私は先々月(3月)に、遅まきながらガラケーからやっとスマホデビューいたしました。 ケータイ本来のラインとかメールの機能はほとんど使わず、もっぱらKZbin一本にはまっております。少し恥ずかしいですが、若い人達には考えられない事でしょう。 さて、映画「おもいでの夏」のご意見ですが、読ませていただき一つ一つ、思い当たり納得致しました。 私がピュアだったかは別にして、男は思春期のころ歳上の女性に憧れる事はよく解ります。 そんな事もこの映画が、男性好みなのかも？ それに、私のような歳になるとなぜか、昔の事が懐かしく思い出されて仕方がないのです。 そんな所も映画とダブリますね！ 追憶老人はKZbinが大好物なのも同じですね！

SUMMER OF '42 is perhaps the film that marked most deeply my adolescence and appreciation of women. I felt an empathy beyond words with the character of Hermie, played by Gary Grimes, and Jennifer O'Neil was a beauty to die for, and the music... oh the soundtrack by Michel Legrand still makes me stop everything to listen, whenever its notes reach my ears. And I listen with my heart as I go back at least 50 years to revisit memories of older women I wished - still wish - I had known intimately, but never did.

[@lemikeyles]

Few movies have so beautifully portrayed the sweet and sour events that people experience during puberty in the process of growing up. Hermie was played by Gary Grimes of newcomer but I was able to sympathize with her with him very natural performance. And it should be the beauty of Jennifer O'Neil who plays the heroine. The combination of these two persons, combined with Michel Legrand's music, I think seems to have established the appeal of this film. I thinking this movie and music are definitely excellent works that will resonate with many hearts. Thanks!

Beautiful theme music. Though I was not yet a teenager when this film came out, I can see how a young guy a few years older than me could fall hard for Jennifer O'Neil like I did for Farrah Fawcett and Lynda Carter. Looking at this movie as a mature man of 60, I see the heartbreak in her face after you see the letter of his passing on the table. The music seems to heighten her sense of loss and her desperate attempt to fill that void with the teenage boy. Oh how our hearts felt love and longing in those years! I treasure my memories so much of the loves of my youth!

[@lemikeyles]

The excitement of love that our feel for the first time in ourour youth that probably will be engraved in our mind most strongly in our entire life.

Yes, this movie is by no means a blockbuster with a lot of production costs, but no movie is as memorable as this one.

There is also quite a difference between your age (25) & Hermie's age (15). You weren't a child & he was & we're supposed to romanticize this. 🤔

[@swanvictor887]

I was blessed to have had a similar experience. Not being a good-looking guy, poor background, socially awkward, my teen years were awful. At 19, by chance while out riding my bike along the Swansea foreshore in South Wales, in the Summer of 83, I met a woman who at the time, was in her mid-40s. I had stopped on the path to assist two girls who had trouble with their bikes (rather tarty girls to whom I had no attraction whatsoever!) when as I was trying to re-attach a chain to the wheel, the job was taken over by a guy in his mid 50s: clearly once a good-looking bloke, he was aging badly but was incredibly arrogant and clearly wanted to jump the two tarts, who were also up for it. Incredibly...he was With HIs Wife!! She stood at the side of the path, watching her stupid husband make a complete fool of himself with these two skanks, with a look of....pity, contempt, sadness? I wheeled my bike over to where she stood with hers...and she apologised to me, for his behaviour. We had an affair all through that summer: she turned a shy, clueless boy, into a man. Alas, by autumn, her husband had been reassigned to another country and they had to leave (he was a successful executive it seemed, they had a lovely house, rented by the company he worked for). Even back then, I knew I could never have her permanently...but I wished I could. She was... beautiful, and kind. Forty years on, I still think of her sometimes, despite being happily married for 15 years!

Certainly, you are right. Dorothy is deprived of a peaceful life with her husband because of the war. That was also the reason why she spent the night with a younger Hermie. Such stories are probably not uncommon in countries that have been involved in wars as unfortunate stories during wartime. This is what gave birth to tragic love or sweet love stories. I think so.

I remember watching this movie over and over again and imagining me being that boy at his puberty. Fell in love with Jennifer O’Neil and still do. The music and movie was a classic masterpiece and still it is understated. I’ll die someday but still loving j O’Neil. In everybody’s life there’s a summer of ‘42. Sadly mine will never leave my mind. It’s everyday.

[@lemikeyles]

You're not the only one. Many peoplee, It seems that you are watching the movie with your adolescent self replaced by a boy and empathizing with your feelings.　Yes, there is a summer of 1942 in everyone's life. Therefore, I think that people who have experienced puberty and have sensibility can sympathize. I think Jennifer O'Neil is a symbol of the image of an admired woman.

[@ianbartle6575]

@@lemikeyles All true - I think it is also not just about the physical longings that naturally accompany the hormonal cocktail. As it's the time when we move away from our families to a greater or lesser degree, and start to contemplate making our own way in the world, for many young boys it is also the start of spiritual longings and a desire for truth, hope and for more 'certainty' than we generally feel. We don't want to 'fail' at life. For young men to put all onto an equally aspirational but often equally confused young women is a hell of a thing. If only we knew then how to be more transparent with our deepest feelings... Problem is, we rarely recognise them then for what they truly are. Sgnd just another helpless romantic!

Love is so strong and powerful...but when it breaks we see just how fragile we really are.

I agree to your words. that's exactly right. General case, When love breaks is accompanied by emotional friction. However, the love in this film develops from an early pale Unrequited love to an impulsive and Accidental love. So it may not say that love is broken. Boy only just returned to the one-sided original relationship to her. So the boy's feelings, she remain beautiful. And also her feelings, It is remain beautiful. So, it may be had been accepted as a beautiful love memoir that call nostalgia.

Among male singers, there are Bryan Adams and Kenny Rogers. When I think about why I fell in love with these singers, I realized that I was drawn to their voices.

This is write from my point of view. It's maybe the relationship with the era or generation and music. Because it strongly reflects the preferences of the generation that has become the mainstream of the world after generations have changed. The younger generation is curious and flocks to new things.　　But even as the times change, great music remainsgreat. There are cases where old songs from the 1950s became big hits in the 1980s. That's right, it's the case of [Unchained Melody] used in the movie 'Ghost'. At some point, the opportunity will come when it will be heard by the younger generation.(young people with good sensibility) Great things are good, after all! (^^♪

Whenever I listen to this very melody, this recording, in this dancing rhythm, I think and remember Jennifer O'Neill acting the dancing scene.

The Summer of 42 the movie was written by Herman Raucher. It was based on the memories that Herman had of Nantucket the year he was 14. He too had encounter with "an older women". The movie did catch my attention and my imagination when it came out in 1971. I think most of us during that time period was captivated by the beauty of Jennifer O'Neil. I was at 15 years of age. I dare say at that age I would really understand what love is/was about. Even though I was married for 14 years until that relationship went south.
