Eighty-five year old Edward retired to Arizona after his wife of sixty years passed away. He felt very much alone in the world and longed for companionship.
While walking through a public park one day, Edward caught sight of what he considered to be a very attractive, silver-haired lady sitting alone on a park bench. Mustering up his nerve, he approached her and graciously asked, "Pardon me, but may I sit here with you?"

* Although the movie purports to be in Kansas, several scenes are obviously filmed on a Hollywood sound stage.
* The scene where the teacher rides past Dorothy's bedroom window in the midst of a tornado is physically impossible.
