And I thought I'll be the first: the only one...

I was either 10 or 11 when I saw this movie for the only time ever and I find someone here trying to make it the best of all times.
Well, It might not be, but to me it was such an impact that I was going around for weeks thinking and re thinking about it and now, after 58 years I feel romantically, socially, cinematically, even intellectual, validated.
I'm sure it was Pier Angeli the biggest cause for the impact but I do recollect the ambience, the social conflict, the juvenile love and its consequences due to prejudice, and all of it was part of my reaction to it.
My hat off to IMDb!

when pigs start flying the *beep* of this world would finally be more evenly shared
