I had forgotten how cute this movie really was. I enjoyed it very much.

This was one of the cutest movies I have seen in a long time. Sandra Dee and Bobby Darin were so cute in this. They don't make movies like they use to. Bobby Darin was wonderful.
Entertainment At It's BEST!
This movie is so sweet, funny and non-violent, non-profane, it's just unbelievable. I watched this years ago on tv and got a kick out of it. Over the years I'd try to find it online, but here I had the title wrong. I just purchased it on Amazon and my college-age daughter and I watched it together the first night. She loved it! Sandra Dee and Bobby Darin are so magnetic together--it's no wonder they married for real. She is one of the sweetest actresses that ever came out of Hollywood. Her voice and smile and the way her face just glows couldn't even be cloned. He's not your big macho type, but he's every bit as sexy. The making-your-hubby-jealous, and more appreciative of you premise is achieved in a most hilarious and inventive way in this film. Her parents in this movie are strong support characters also. Well worth the money and should be considered a must for any true old movie buffs' collection.
Where is a DVD copy of that one? In "I'd Rather Be Rich," Sandra Dee's mischievous "dying" father (Maurice Chevalier) wants to meet her fiance (Andy Williams.) The fiance being unavailable, she presents to her dad some guy she picks up at random (Robert Goulet.) Then Dad doesn't die. So a kind of catty duel begins. Cute. Very cute.

Hanging out at an Italian villa with Rock Hudson and Gina Lollobrigida sounds like a painless way to kill a vacation--and Come September is a pretty painless movie, too. Rock is a millionaire who spends a month at his home on the Riviera every year, except this year he's come early and surprised his staff, who've been running the place as a paying hotel. This is one of those comedies of sexual frustration--Rock can't get alone with Gina, because the "hotel" is overrun with American teenagers (chief among them Sandra Dee and Bobby Darin, who married after meeting on the shoot). The plot is labored, and director Robert Mulligan shows little feel for farce (he would shortly hit his stride with To Kill a Mockingbird). At least the location shooting has a nice summer breeze to...

"Just remember, she might be pint-sized, but she's quite a woman." The original surfer girl gets her own three-film DVD collection, dippy fun from a more innocent time. 1959's Gidget made real surfers nauseated, but it's a kicky movie with some great lounge-era lingo. Sandra Dee, perkiness personified, plays the curious teen who breaks the gender line in surfing. She's also got the attention of surf-happy Moondoggie (James Darren) and the big Kahuna (Cliff Robertson), the latter the prototype of the surf bum who roams the globe in search of the endless summer. The film actually kicked off the great boom in surfing popularity (the Beach Boys and the Beach Party movies followed), much to the chagrin of purists. It was based on a novel by Frederick Kohner, who was inspired by... More Info about this DVD Director(s): Paul Wendkos DVD Release Date: Released the 03 August 2004 Usually ships in 24 hours

After her long and wholesome run as America's Sweetheart, Doris Day quit movies with this well-scrubbed picture. With Six You Get Eggroll--oof, what a title--caught the wave of blended-family comedies, coming just after Yours, Mine and Ours and just before TV's The Brady Bunch. Doris has three sons, and new beau Brian Keith has an 18-year-old daughter (the still-baby-faced Barbara Hershey). It's family-friendly sitcom stuff, with both Day and Keith doing their comfortable, patented thing; when the two of them are onscreen together it's like watching a couple of old sweaters mate. This one is straight formula for fans only, although connoisseurs of camp will enjoy the whiff of Aquarius in the otherwise square proceedings (it was 1968, after all) when Doris goes to a...

James Garner substitutes for Rock Hudson in this hilarious Doris Day outing. Housewife Beverly Boyer (Day) happens by chance to give an executive of Happy Soap an honest appraisal of one of his company's products. Charmed by her forthright and honest manner, he makes Beverly the company spokesperson. When she becomes an advertising sensation, her husband (Garner) has to deal with the social ramifications of his wife making more money than he does. Day and Garner are both in good form, and Garner nicely portrays the mounting frustration of bewildered husband Gerald.
Gerald's refusal to accept that Beverly's new career infringes on her duties as housewife is, of course, outdated thinking today. Nevertheless, the film works and is sincerely funny. No wonder: comedian Carl Reiner cowrote... More Info about this DVD Director(s): Norman Jewison DVD Release Date: Released the 04 February 2003 Usually ships in 6 to 11 days
