Movie Reviews of A Summer Place
Movie Review: The Performance of Sandra Dee's Career
Summary: 5 Stars
This film was very risqué for 1960. Summer Place has the most beautiful opening credits of any film ever. It is supposed to be the New England Coast but it is in reality Monterey CA. This film is at times camp but the film is a monument to the social mores and naiveté of America in the late 50's and early 60's. Summer Place had one the most beautiful theme songs ever made for a film made famous by the Percy Faith Orchestra that did 2 other versions of " Theme From a Summer Place". Faith re-recorded the song twice - first, in 1969, as a female choral version, then, in 1976, as a terrible disco version titled "Summer Place 76".Movie Review: A Summer Place...

I can't improve on what the others have said concerning this movie. I myself was born when this movie was released. I too, caught it on Late-Night television in the 70's (as a teen). The movie, though 'square' to me, was very effective in getting their message across about Love, and what people would do to get it. Troy Donahue and Sandra Dee were (in my view) cast perfectly in their roles, they were naive kids - twin volcanoes waiting to erupt. Love - wanted, yet forbidden. I can just imagine the "newness" of what kids in that situation feel. Whew! A great movie - Five stars!!Movie Review: So glad you are a source for classic films
Summary: 5 Stars
Wonderful movie and so happy to find it here. Sorry it was packaged so badly that it arrived in rattling-around-the-packaging scratched condition and unviewable. But Amazon sent a perfect replacement quickly. Sorry I paid for the fast shipping on the first one, which was uncredited. But, Amazon did respond quickly and most likely forwarded my remarks about packaging.
I cannot remark about the difference in FILM vs. DVD recorded items. We can no longer be fussy about this, I think, and I am just glad that someone is preserving these classic films.

warners did do a very good movie this time and a great story and the actors are all very good and there is a lovely music score by Max steiner. even the music alone is well worth buying this movie, I have seen this many times and enjoyed all the more, I give this 5 stars and it is a good family entertainment. they dont make them like this anhymore a real good classic, and the music is just great and Steiner makes the movie even more wonderful to watch, another very good movie well worth having on the shelf, to watch over and over againMovie Review: Totally Romantic
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie was first released when I was a child, and I remember my mother and the neighbor lady conferring about it over the fence. They agreed they simply could not let the young girls in both families go see something so terribly racy. After I did see it, it became an all-time favorite of mine. I still cry when Richard Egan meets Dorothy Maguire in the boathouse and tells her he loves her so much he can hardly speak. This is one to watch over and over again with a box of Kleenex in hand.
