Review of Summer Magic (1963) by Bee D — 26 Mar 2006
It's typical Disney family-fare from the early 60s. Haley Mills is cute as the older sister in the Carey family. Eddie Hodges is not bad either as her brother. Burl Ives is enjoyable. His "Ugly Bug Ball" sequence with little Jimmy Mathers is cute, corny and memorable.
Deborarh Walley is fun as cousin Julia and it's fun to see her and Mills irritating each other. There are some cute songs in here, by Sherman brothers, but you wonder what they were thinking when they wrote them.
