Time of First Love

About This Movie

So, 'Time of First Love' is one of those charming 70s flicks that captures the whimsy of youth. You’ve got these three senior high school girls who decide to build a hot air balloon for a boy, which is just such a delightful premise. The pace is easygoing, perfect for summer vibes, and there’s a lovely blend of comedy, drama, and a hint of romance that feels genuine. The performances carry a warmth; you can feel the camaraderie among the girls, and the practical effects of the balloon are quite endearing. It’s not flashy but has a nostalgic quality that resonates. It’s one of those films that really encapsulates that fleeting feeling of first love and adventure, making it a little gem in its own right.

This film has had limited releases over the years, mainly on obscure VHS and DVD formats, making it somewhat elusive for collectors. Given its niche appeal and the quaint nature of its story, interest has been on the rise among those who appreciate 70s cinema. It's not widely available, which can drive up its value for those hunting for unique treasures in their collections.
