Think A Summer Place, and you'll probably be humming Max Steiner's wonderfully romantic instrumental theme song, a hand-holding hit in 1959. The movie itself is similarly irresistible, a colorful soap opera about the passions of a pair of dewy-eyed teens and their straying parents. At an island resort in Maine, Sandra Dee and Troy Donahue (the reigning teen idols of the day) fall hard for each other. What they don't know is that her father (Richard Egan) and his mother (Dorothy McGuire), lovers 20 years earlier, have rekindled their affair. Both, inconveniently, have spouses, which is what makes this a soap opera. Lovers of camp will find much to savor in the incredible '50s attitudes, and in the innocence of supervirgin Dee ("Johnny, have you been bad with girls?"). Yet the sincerity of writer-director Delmer Daves, cowriter of An Affair to Remember, comes shining through the corn; and the grown-up affair anticipates The Bridges of Madison County by 30 years. --Robert Horton

5 out of 5 stars TOOK ME RIGHT BACK TO MY TEEN YEARS!   December 20, 2008
Ramona Le Blanc
This is one of my favorite movies and it brought back all of the memories of being in love with Troy Donahue. My daughter watched it with me and thought it was a great movie, too, so its greatness has withstood the sands of time. So happy to find it in DVD and the quality was extremely good.

lost in 60's (Nevada)
This is exactly what I was looking for. It was a gift for a friend who remembers the movie from her teenage years and never got to see it again. I decided that this year for her birthday, I would purchase it, along with another I also purchased from Amazon. It came really quick and I was able to wrap it and put in a greeting card and still mail it off to her on time for her birthday. Thanks so much. I plan to shop here often.

William Rogers (Upton wirral uk)
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 again
