Anyone else remember this film?

I taped a copy off tv in the mid 80's but somehow managed to tape over it a few years later.

I had forgotten all about the film until the death of Jack Lester last week and it brought all the memories flooding back.

Anyone else remember the film?, I wonder if there's any chance of it ever getting released on DVD in the UK, its only available from Japan apparently!

Yes I remember it well. I would love to see this again one day. It was obviously reteaming Mark Lester and Jack Wild on the back of the success of Oliver! as they were two of the most popular child actors at the time. I can picture the face of the girl who played Melody as well. i seem to reacll it changed title from Melody to S.W.A.L.K. and then became known as S.W.A.L.K./Melody.

Can anyone also remember Flight of The Doves released around the same time which gave Ron Moody a starring role after his role in Oliver! and also starred Jack Wild.It also featured Dana. Ron Moody was a wicked Uncle who apperared in various disguises during the film.
 
Glad that somebody knows it Jeff!

The girl who played Melody was called Tracy Hyde, I googled it earlier and it brings up some info about her and the film.

I hope they do release the DVD in the UK, fingers crossed.
