I have always liked the song of the same name that this movie got it's idea from and I saw the movie Harper Valley P.T.A. and I liked it. Barbara Eden (I Dream of Jeannie) is good as Stella and Susan Swift (Audrey Rose) is also good as her daughter Dee and the rest of the cast is alsp good! I'm glad this movie is finally on DVD and I would definitely buy this for my DVD collection but when I looked up the DVD info on Amazon here wasn't any info on the aspect rato. I hope it's widescreen and not pan and scan! This is a cute movie! Three and a half stars. More Info About This DVD Actor(s): Barbara Eden - Ronny Cox Director(s): Richard C.
