Four New England co-eds swap the winter chill for the warm sands of Fort Lauderdale in the landmark 1960 spring break favourite, WHERE THE BOYS ARE. Petite brunette pop singer Connie Francis makes her film debut, with a surprising, literate screenplay crafted from the novel by Glendon Swarthout.
With her grades falling by the wayside and the winter seriously affecting her morale, Merritt Andrews (Dolores Hart) decides the perfect mid-term escape is a holiday in Fort Lauderdale with her three best gal-pals: Melanie (Yvette Mimieux), Tuggle (Paula Prentiss) and Angie (Connie Francis). The boys are beckoning, the water is warm and the "dialectic jazz" is hot! It's going to be a spring break to remember...
What sets this film apart from the sunny antics of the "Gidget"'s and "Beach Party"'s is the way it candidly deals with the subject of girls having sexual relationships outside of marriage. Dolores Hart's Merritt is torn over falling in love with handsome college stud Ryder (George Hamilton--long before he became a walking caricature) or remaining a "good girl". Yvette Mimieux's Melanie, on the other hand, falls into a dangerous mixture of rowdy college boys and alcohol. Comedy relief comes in Tuggle's hilarious pairing with TV (Jim Hutton), a lanky wisecracker who is "queer for hats".
Connie Francis sings "Where the Boys Are" and "Turn on the Sunshine". The supporting cast includes Frank Gorshin, Barbara Nichols and Chill Wills. Warner's DVD comes stacked with some recent interviews with Ms Prentiss and Ms Francis, an audio commentary with Prentiss, footage from the movie's premiere, and the trailer.
