When they were filming the movie version, Robert Preston found out for the first time that Shirley Jones was pregnant when her son kicked him in the stomach as them embraced on the bridge during this song.
An unmarried man and woman "meeting at the footbridge" was about as daring a display of non-marital (or really any) public intimacy which might be expected for the times.

Till There Was You
Words and Music by Meredith Wilson
There were bells on the hill
But I never heard them ringing,
No, I never heard them at all
Till there was you.
There were birds in the sky
But I never saw them winging
No, I never saw them at all
Till there was you.
And there was music,
And there were wonderful roses,
They tell me,
In sweet fragrant meadows of dawn, and dew.
There was love all around
But I never heard it singing
No, I never heard it at all
Till there was you!

| Ouch! the lighting is a bit too harsh - their shirts are getting blown out and the shadow is distracting. A closer shot of the two would have worked even better. |

| The lighting is poor here... I know it's a stage and has to be brightly lit, but the guy's shadow is distracting. It also could be better focused. |

| Nice image, there just to far apart to convey any type of intimacy. |

| you overexposed him; black in the left bottom part, where i was expecting yellow; interesting concept (was it a school play or something like that?) |

I really like this set I think the childlike painting effect could have really worked well.
Its a shame about the harsh lighting and microphones, which are obviously out of your control. I think this would have been a great location to stage a shot after the performance where you could position the actors more intimately and get them to put the mics down. Maybe even get a softer light. Although this isn't always practically possible. |

| Double checking my votes. The colors look nice, but there's nothing in the photo that portrays "intimacy". I think this is exactly what you were going for, so its kind of a cool idea, but compared to the other pictures its not my favorite. |

| Not real imtimacy, but a play. I shouldn't talk, mine isn't real either. I know you had no control over the lighting, but the harsh lighting and shadows detract from it. |
