Beach Party

AWESOMENESS.

"There's an irresistible surge of that urge to romantically merge." If there's more to the meaning of life, I don't want to know about it!

Annette Funicello was adorable in this movie. It must be that How to Stuff a Wild Bikini was not a very representative piece as my first (as much as I loved it), in the way it set up Deedee to be the schoolmarm type. This first Deedee was more like what I'd imagine for a teenage love flick: sweetheart, vixen, and girl-next-door all rolled into one.

This first Beach Party experiment was also superior in that it had more purpose (esp vis a vis Von Zipper), less gawd-awful singing, more plot, a classic pie fight, and Dick Dale. It was inferior, however, in that its denoument just died half-way through; plus, the dancing was not as wild.
