 This film was mentioned by a 1954 Memorandum of the New York State  Education Department, written with regard to New York State Law  1954, Chapter 620, which added definitions of "immoral" and "incite  to crime" for motion picture censorship purposes. The Memorandum  cited this film as an example of a film about which the EDs Motion  Picture Division had been "beset with inquiries and applications for  reconsideration of motion pictures which heretofore have been  regarded as contrary to the present provisions of the statute." It  stated that One Summer of Happiness "contains a scene where a boy,  nineteen, and a girl, seventeen, spending a vacation together, swim  and embrace in the nude."
