Annette Funicello

The Supremes, Spike Jones

My Childhood Favorite!
I used to watch this constantly when I was a kid, and would recommend it to any parent. The classic animation infused with the timeless music is a wonderful way to entertain a kid for endless hours (as my parents quickly found out). To this day, when I hear "Baby Love" ...

The Shaggy Dog

Fred MacMurray, Jean Hagen

Walt Disney Video, 1997

Doggone Good! Classic family comedy for all ages!
I first saw "The Shaggy Dog" while at camp Matollionequay as little girl years ago and fell on the floor laughing. When I saw it was available on DVD, I quickly purchased it to have it for my family so my 5 year old daughter, husband and I could enjoy it together. The ...

Pajama Party

Tommy Kirk, Annette Funicello

MGM (Video & DVD), 2000

classic Beach Party film

The Horsemasters

Annette Funicello, Tommy Kirk

Walt Disney Home Video, 1986

Life Changing
This movie shaped the lives of many girls of my generation (way old). As Ofoeti mentions in the review below, we ate and drank this movie. However, we had to keep reading the little paperback book, as there were no VHS machines yet. The little book came from a kids ...

Beach Blanket Bingo

Frankie Avalon, Annette Funicello

Good Times Video, 2001

Frankie Avalon's Best Movie
A Good movie and the Best scenes are Frankie Avalon singing the theme song and the romantic song "These Are The Good Times" in the movie a song he later sang in a episode of "The Patty Duke Show".

Bikini Beach

Frankie Avalon, Annette Funicello

MGM (Video & DVD), 2000

Bikini Beach Is The Best!
Almost all reviewers list "Beach Blanket Bingo" as their favorite movie in the beach movie series. I have to give a slight edge to "Bikini Beach" for my personal favorite. Frankie Avalon does double duty very well, playing the English rock star known as Potato Bug, as ...

Thunder Alley

Annette Funicello, Fabian

MGM (Video & DVD), 2000

Above Average Racing Flick
Fabian turns in a very good performance as a race car driver, much more convincing than Elvis ever was (though some may consider that faint praise.) Annette Funicello looks absolutely luminous, and is very good in a straight dramatic role. Fast-paced and entertaining, ...

The Monkees - Head

William Bagdad, Timothy Carey

Rhino / Wea, 1995

1.85:1 LBX, BABY!
RE: J. Rosenberg "Pop Culturalist" Guess what? It's on TCM right now (Oct. 20th, 2007 @2:00am) and it's properly framed in it's soft matted 1.85:1 ratio, AS IT WAS INTENDED! The compositions make more sense now and everything looks better. I've spoken at length ...

Back to the Beach

Frankie Avalon, Annette Funicello

Paramount, 1998

Bobby!!!!
If you like anything about surfing movies, or surf music, or old TV shows and actors, you will like this movie. It's goofy and predictable, sure. But what isn't anymore? If you are a Stevie Ray Vaughan fan, or a Dick Dale fan, then their scenes are worth owning the DVD ...

Monkey's Uncle

Tommy Kirk, Annette Funicello

Buena Vista Home Video, 1997

Merlin Jones Returns thanks to Walt Disney
"The Monkey's Uncle" is an entertaining and funny sequel to "The Misadventures of Merlin Jones." Set again at Midvale College, it is better than the first. This time Merlin Jones the student genius, played again by Walt Disney's stalwart Tommy Kirk, gets involved with ...

Babes in Toyland (1961)

Ray Bolger, Tommy Sands

Walt Disney Video, 2002

Classic Disney
I have been searching for some time for this movie, the later Disney stuff is not of interest. The nursery rhyme stories come to life in this one and it is entertaining for adult and kids alike the "fight" scene is not the type to cause stress to little people and the ...
