Definitely another of my top 20 movies list, beautiful story how the young mermaid fell in love with a very young boy that accidentally fell from a ship in the sea and he was saved by the young mermaid, then she came back years after and she saved the now older boy a man a second time but this time she stayed with him and they fell head over heels in love and had at the end to flee together from society into the sea is very romantic. Always one of my most favorite movies all time !!! 😍😍😍😘🤗
