Summer of '42 is a 1971 American coming-of-age comedy-drama film based on the memoirs of screenwriter Herman Raucher (b. 1928). It tells the story of how Raucher, in his early teens on his 1942 summer vacation on Nantucket Island (off the coast of Cape Cod), embarks on a one-sided romance with a young woman, Dorothy, whose husband has gone off to fight in World War II.

There's only one problem: the disc contains very little music actually heard in the film. Now, the entire "original motion picture soundtrack" concept has always had problems as a real entity, if not as a marketing proposition.

During his summer vacation on Nantucket Island in 1942, a youth eagerly awaiting his first sexual encounter finds himself developing an innocent love for a young woman awaiting news on her soldier husband's fate in WWII.

While Oscy's main worries are the when and how of getting laid, Hermie honestly falls in love with the older Dorothy, who's married to an army pilot.

The movie was the 6th highest grossing film of 1971 and one of the most successful films in history. She ended her 1972 letter to him with this, "The ghosts of that night 30 years ago are better left undisturbed. The real song that played on her record player that night, if you want to recreate the mood, was 'That Old Feeling. The final line from that song foretold the future, "There'll be no new romance for me, it's foolish to start, 'Cause that old feeling is still in my heart. She could not start something new yet, because her husband was still in her heart. To her it was a drunken episode, I sense; to him, the world.

The summer knows, the summer's wise She sees the doubts within your eyes And so she takes her summertime.
