First in a series - By: B. Chandler, 08 Feb 2005
As with most firsts the first film is the best as it has the fresh idea & is not rehashed. I may seem a little sophomoric these days but it filled a gap & reflected the music & culture of the time.
Frankie (Frankie Avalon) assumes he is going to spend the summer alone with Dolores (Annette Funicello). Boy is he in for a surprise. There are surfers, bikers, air planes, & Morey Amsterdam.
Robert Cummings adds a good balance to this movie as a researcher of the California beach tribe. He must keep his objectivity as he is interacting with their culture. Will he be able to or not?
We are alll waiting for the word from Big Daddy.
