This is the most wonderful love story that stays with you always., 17 June 2001

Author: florriebbc from Reno, Nevada

I saw the movie Enchantment in 1948 when I was 11 years old. I was so moved by the story, when I returned home I wrote down the complete story, so I would never forget. I have seen the movie 5 times in the last 50 years and if I owned the movie I would watch it every week.
