I watched it last night, for the umpteenth time, and I was wondering what today's society would make of Leisl and Rolf's duet, with lyrics, 'I am sixteen going on seventeen, when Leisl sings 'I need someone older and wiser, telling me what to do. You are seventeen going on eighteen, I'll depend on you.'
I almost laughed, thinking how absolutely impossible it would be, to write such lyrics today.
How things have changed since the film was made.
