Melody aka SWALK Tribute Film

As a teenager, Jack Wild was capable of giving some very outstanding performances. The film Melody contained one of the finest examples of this, with Jack playing the part of Ornshaw, a troubled youth with a good heart. He strikes up a friendship with Danny, who becomes his best friend. The arrival of Melody in Danny's life upsets the balance of friendship Ornshaw shares with Danny and threatens his security. Danny wants to marry Melody, not in the future, but NOW. The resulting confrontation with adult figures in the film repairs the friendship between the two boys.

I read an old artical that said that both Daniel and Ornshaw were in love with Melody, but I saw this and I didn't seem like that. Could somebody clear this up for me?

Jack Wild was the cutest thing that ever graced the face of the earth.

@2muchfun111 - I ordered by dvd copy off of Amazon from South America. Can't get it here in the states. Saw this when it came out when I was about 10 or so. I'm still a Jack Wild fan. He had a magical quality as a young actor.

@JuanMacready I am pretty sure it was both of them

[JuanMacready]

Maybe or was that Daniel?

[Dinzzaa]

@JuanMacready Yeah Ornshaw wasn't gay. Wasn't there a part of the movie where he was looking at a magazine of nude women?

[JuanMacready]

I don't think Ornshaw was gay.

Primero de Mayo... When I was small... and christmas trees are tall... tengo el vinilo con el soundtrack... pero ya me dió miedito subirlo con eso de que andan bloqueando audio... Saludos! :D

[therealcritic28]

Where'd you hear/read that?

[PeterFirthFan]

Actually the character of Ornshaw was meant to be gay.

[snottyxraygirl]

Shame on you,he was a hot looking young man and very much NOT homosexual. What difference would it make if he were? Are you? PeterPanFan is more like it ,methinks. Don't diss Jack Wild,idiot.
