I remember seeing this movie the first time it aired in 1973. I actually watched it with my parents who did not like hippies at all yet they were quite moved by this story. I remember discussing it with friends at school and all the young girls commenting on how they cried at the end. Most of us made sure we saw it again when it was rebroadcast a few months later. The movie made such a splash that Cliff Deyoung actually performed "My Sweet Lady" on the Midnight Special around that time. When I learned of IMDb in the 90s, I was surfing around and happened upon a reference to this movie and recalled it and what it meant in 1973/74. For several years I tried finding it so I could see it again. I eventually found a copy on ebay and bought it. I watched it again in June 2005 and it just didn't hold up. It was not at all like I remembered. The story was not as moving as I remembered; the interaction between characters was not what I remembered. Seems Sam and Kate were always fighting, the harmony I thought I remembered wasn't there between them. As with many fond memories of another time, perhaps they're best left as memories. The recent viewing of this movie was quite a disappointment.

I saw this movie as a young "hippie" woman and just loved it. It captured the times of 1973 perfectly. The subject matter, young love, family, illness, free spirits were right on. The photography was beautiful as well as the John Denver music, which was at the height of his popularity. I felt the lead character to be very brave. I now have a stepdaughter the same age I was when I first saw this movie and I only wish she could view it too. Who says great movies are not written for television?

I saw this movie when I was a teenager and I absolutely loved it. I remember that I cried like a baby. Like so many others, I only saw it once, and I have since scoured everywhere looking for a personal copy to keep. I have just watched Love Story with my daughter, and I was telling her how good "Sunshine" was, compared to Love story. We both want to see it now, me because I loved it so much originally, and her because I've told her about how great it is, and how sad it is, and how its the type of movie that never leaves you, once you've seen it, it just touches you. I recall seeing it with a boyfriend in Perth, and we both walked out of the cinema crying our eyes out. He was a very blokey (macho)man, very tough, and I think its the only time I ever saw him cry, not only over a movie, but over anything. I just want to see it again. If anyone knows where I can get a copy, please put a message here. I will be eternally grateful. If anyone reading this has the power to get it on to DVD.... please do so. I imagine there are a lot of us out there who are waiting to see this fabulous movie again.

I'm a guy. I first saw this film in bar full of bikers. And STILL I cried! I've only seen it one more time since then, and that's not nearly enough. Look, let's start a letter-writing campaign to TNT or TCM or SOMEBODY to broadcast this movie again. It's a crime to let it fade away into obscurity! Seriously, we need to get organized about this. We should choose a cable channel, find out exactly who schedules the programming, and bombard that person or those persons with hundreds of hard copy letters, not e-mails. Address them by name, be polite, make very sure how much this means to you, and convince them that this film can attract a huge cult following. This is a movie for future generations, not just the 70s generation! Don't you want to be able to share this with your kids and your grand kids? Let's get started. We need to save this film.

I only saw this film one time on television in the 1970's. I had just had my son and I was so inspired by this story that I immediately began a journal to him and over the years I had three more children and weekly would add more and more to the journal. A few years ago as a Christmas gift to them, I made copies of my journal about them and gave the journal to each of them so they could read what I had written when they were growing up. But enough about me...this film has stayed with me all these years, it is one of the most beautiful and touching stories and I wish it was available to view now. If you find it offered somewhere, I highly recommend it.

I also saw Sunshine only once, in the early 70's, and was deeply affected by it. I remember the movie as very simple, but very powerful. The night I saw it was without doubt the MOST memorable night of my life. I say that because at that age (18) all things seemed possible, and the movie allowed me to express emotions and feeling that had been in the back of my mind for years. Feelings like love, unadulterated by the pressures of society. I'm 30 years older now and it amazes me that even today I hold the memories dear. I've been lately thinking About my life's time All the things I've done And how it's been And so I found this message board. Mike

I saw this wonderful movie in the early 70's with my best friend Sally at the age of 20. We cried so hard! Through it we discovered John Denver's music and it influenced us deeply in terms of appreciating nature, love and life. Sadly, several years later, a close friend of ours, Kathy, then lived the story, so similar it is haunting, she died in 1979. Her daughter is now pregnant (due late 3/2K6) and so wishing her mother was with us to enjoy and experience her grandchild. I think of this movie quite often, the characters, the story, the lessons, the beauty. It affected me deeply and probably always will. I was touched to read so many others with such similar reactions. Hearing John Denver music always reminds me of it. There is a line in his song, "Home Again" in which he sings "Your mother called last Friday, "Sunshine" made her cry" that I am pretty sure refers to the movie. I have no idea if the movie would hold up to my profound memories of it but I would love to see it, own a copy. I just emailed nannysue33@hotmail.com and am waiting for an answer to see if the movie can be obtained. Has anyone found it? I would love information! I don't think they make them quite like this anymore.

Love all the boards regarding the movie "SUNSHINE". I am very much interested in purchasing an original copy of the movie. I was very moved by this movie in the summer of 1977 sitting in my apartment flipping through the stations and came across the movie. I noticed it was a true love story. I saw the movie from beginning to end. I also cried like a baby, like many others. Will never forget this movie ever. Because of the time of error that this movie was put out I have been accused that I had named my daughter after the drug orange sunshine. That is totally false. I would like to clear this up with many people. (my 3 children, relatives and friends) I was 18 when I saw this movie and from that time on I had nicked named her dad sunshine, instead of the same old names honey, babe, sweetheart etc. My daughter was borned July of 1980. I did not know the gender of my child while pregnant, but the first names were going to be after her dad. Michael if boy - Sunshine if girl. I still get hasseled and remarks over her first name. It seems as if no one has seen this movie as I tried to describe it as to where her name really came from. (a movie then a nickname) The remarks are oh yah right. I'm 49 years of age. I have had a very memorable life of happiness in the past and now. I really need for my children (ages 27, 25 and 21)to see the true story of SUNSHINE to clear the air. They will really understand why I came up with the name SUNSHINE. So please if anyone can help please contact me Linda by e-mail 4kids6gkids@att.net. 4/12/08
