Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe film's alternative title S.W.A.L.K. is a common British abbreviation for Sealed With A Loving Kiss, a phrase that lovers write on the envelope of love letters to each other.
- GoofsIn the headmaster's RE lesson he quotes: 'And Jesus said, "Take up thy bed and walk."' He then asks the class the name of the man addressed and the names of the disciples who were with Jesus at the time. Jesus' quote occurs on two separate occasions (Mark Chap. 2 and John Chap. 5). On neither occasion is the man addressed named, nor is there mention of Jesus being accompanied by any of his disciples. Hence the pupils could not be expected to give a 'correct' answer.
- Quotes

Featured review
THIS HAS A CULT FOLLOWING
i was fortunate enough to play the part of peggy in this film, it was alan parkers first screenplay and david puttnams first film, i had previously worked with alan on several advertisments and continued to work with him after melody on a few more adverts, i count myself so very lucky to have appeared in alan and davids first big project, i am amazed that this film still has a big following 33 years later, my original vhs copy of melody broke many years ago, but i managed to track down a copy as well as a dvd, i had no idea it was readily available to buy in hongkong,japan, america and even argentina! since checking out the websites for melody/swalk i have been amazed by the wonderful emails sent to me from people all around the world, i would like to thank everybody who has taken time out to enter their comments and feelings etc and to wish everybody a very happy and healthy 2004 kay (nee skinner)
