Movie Of The Week

Gidget (1959)

"Gidget" is the first Beach movie ever
Here's an introduction to the film by Dick Clark

This is it! The movie that started the “beach movie” cycle that lasted more than six years! A short, flat-chested tomboy is unable to compete with the curvaceous bikinied babes at Malibu Beach. Her parents assure her that boys will eventually notice her.

Faster than you can say cowabunga, surfers Moondoggie and Kahoona (who call her a girl-midget, then Gidget for short) vie for her attention during the summer of her 16th birthday.

Tons of surfing, beach parties and the Four Preps perform at one of their beach shindigs! Sandra Dee, James Darren, Cliff Robertson, Arthur O'Connell, Yvonne Craig, Doug McClure, Tom Laughlin, Jo Morrow, The Four Preps. Gidget!
