Review of A Swingin' Summer (1965) by Wendy L — 17 Jun 2016
I have not long watched this with my youngest daughter (Who gave up after 20 ins) and I thought the story-line was OK for it's time. The fight scene on the beach was a tad choppy if you get my meaning. It reminded me of early fight scenes from the Original Star Trek Series.
My daughter thought too much of the filming focused on women's butts (I tried to explain it was more chauvinistic back then). But the problem that we both agreed on was that no way did over 25 year old people pass for teenagers.
On the whole it was a good film with good guys winning over bad guys and Raquel Welch being an early Sandy from Grease and deciding that the only way she could get the boy she wanted was to be more showy with her curves.
