Dazu… gehören zwei: Directed by Henry Levin. With Dolores Hart, George Hamilton, Yvette Mimieux, Jim Hutton. Four very different college girls drive to Fort Lauderdale, Florida for spring break and seek out various adventures and romance for themselves.

“Unlike itu0026#39;s remake u0026quot;Where The Boys Are u0026#39;84u0026quot;, which starred over-the-hill actors as college kids, u0026quot;Where The Boys Areu0026quot; cast young, college-aged stars. One interesting thing about this film is that it could have spawned a big, money-making blockbuster soundtrack album, but it didnu0026#39;t. Aside from the theme song, plus 2 others sung during the film, music is not a big part of this movie, story is. Another interesting thing about this movie is the outdoor location shots. Unlike Elvisu0026#39; u0026quot;Girl Happyu0026quot;, 5 years later, which was very obviously shot on a studio backlot. Most movies of this time u0026amp; especially this genre were not shot on location, thatu0026#39;s why this movie had a larger budget for itu0026#39;s time ($4 million). Itu0026#39;s refreshing to see the stars on Las Olas Blvd. headed for the beach, u0026amp; at the famous Elbo Room bar in 1960. Location shooting became common u0026amp; taken for granted years later. The story revolves around 4 college girls on their way to Ft. Lauderdale for Spring Break. The movie is ahead of itu0026#39;s time because it shows young woman, on their own, furthering their education. Itu0026#39;s also very dated because getting married seems to be the main thing on their minds. Connie Francis is fun to watch, but I feel she was miscast as someone who was supposed to be unattractive. No one pays attention to her u0026amp; itu0026#39;s not very believable (sheu0026#39;s not a big fan of this movie u0026amp; I can understand why!) Dolores Hart had a Grace Kelly vibe going. She later left acting to become a cloistered nun. This was Paula Prentissu0026#39; film debut u0026amp; she has an endearing, goofy persona/quality. Yvette Mimieux is cast as the dimbulb who sleeps around hoping each guy who beds her will fall in love with her (ugh!!). George Hamilton, Jim Hutton, u0026amp; Frank Gorshin portray the u0026quot;boysu0026quot;. Unfortunately, there isnu0026#39;t a really good looking dude among the main males (but there are some hot u0026quot;extrasu0026quot; in the background scenes). The movie starts off frothy but ends on a serious note.”
