The original surfer girl/beach bum movie, adapted from the novel by Frederick Kohner, Gidget (1959) stars Sandra Dee as determined little Frances Lawrence, who falls in love both with surfing and with the characters who populate the local Southern California beach hangout. Of particular interest are the young Moondoggie (James Darren) and the more mature Big Kahuna (Cliff Robertson), a Korean War vet who is the idol of every surfer on the coast for his life of apparently unfettered freedom. Starring: Sandra Dee, James Darren, Cliff Robertson, Arthur O’Connell, Joby Baker, Yvonne Craig, Doug McClure Directed By: Paul Wendkos Written By: Gabrielle Upton Score By: Morris Stoloff Language: English Video: 1080p High Definition / 2.35:1 / Color Audio: English 1.0 DTS-HD MA Subtitles: English SDH Theatrical Release: 1959 Runtime: 95 Minutes Rating: NR (Not Rated) Region Code: Region Free (A/B/C) Special Features: Isolated Music Track / Original Theatrical Trailer Genre: Comedy Limited Edition of 3,000 Units Review: and am so glad. The quality is so much better than it ... - I watched Gidget a lot. I rented it from Blockbuster regularly as a kid in the 90s. I now own it through desertcart, and am so glad. The quality is so much better than it had been when I saw it on VHS. Sandra Dee is "the ultimate" and I relate a lot to her - I was a tom boy who was skinny and underdeveloped. I wanted to have fun. This is what Gidget is like, but she also wants a relationship with guys too and to find "the one", which is how I was (I married my first boyfriend). Just some things to keep in mind with this movie (content wise), they tease Gidget a lot, and not necessarily in a nice way. She has a good attitude about things. Also she tries to throw herself at an older man in order to get someone jealous. There are a few people shown in bikinis too in this. A teen drinks a beer as well. I don't remember if any teens are smoking, but an adult man is smoking a cigar at one point. This is one of my all time favorite summer movies! If I had a daughter, I'd want her to see this (but alas, I have two sons who didn't seem too interested when I tried to get them to see it with me). Review: Love This Old Movie! - Yes, it’s really corny but I’ve always loved this original Gidget movie. Such a different time it was. I loved when this came on TV out of the blue back when I was a young girl. It was filmed before my time but not tooo far. Lol. Sandra Dee was the best Gidget. I have nothing against Sally Field but I really didn’t like her in this role. Anyways, fun blast from the past. I considered watching it with my 17-year-old daughter but glad I didn’t. She would have been rolling her eyes the whole time! It was my own guilty pleasure.

and am so glad. The quality is so much better than it ...
I watched Gidget a lot. I rented it from Blockbuster regularly as a kid in the 90s. I now own it through Amazon, and am so glad. The quality is so much better than it had been when I saw it on VHS. Sandra Dee is "the ultimate" and I relate a lot to her - I was a tom boy who was skinny and underdeveloped. I wanted to have fun. This is what Gidget is like, but she also wants a relationship with guys too and to find "the one", which is how I was (I married my first boyfriend).

so of course I love this one
I am a total fan of older movies, so of course I love this one. James Darren is a hottie, and you totally cannot miss seeing him shirtless, singing, and looking absolutely gorgeous. The drama surrounding Gidget as a person, is exactly how I feel sometimes. I am a tad bit of a tomboy, so you can really relate to her character and what it is like to be a girl in this big old world. This movie is awesome, enough said.

🎶 Gidget Is The One For Me! 🎶
This is a true classic, the best of the Gidget movies, and I wish it would be re released on dvd bluray! My mother loved this movie, I loved this movie, & now my daughter does. The message for the new age girl isn't realistic, but its an adorably entertaining way to see the differences in the generations.
