A Summer Place
A Summer Place ★★ 1959
Melodrama about summer liaisons amid the young and middle-aged rich on an island off the coast of Maine. Too slick; romantic drama is little more than skin-deep, and dialogue is excruciating. Donahue's first starring role. Based on the novel by Sloan Wilson. Featuring “Theme from a Summer Place,” which was a number-one hit in 1959. 130m/C VHS, DVD . Troy Donahue, Richard Egan, Sandra Dee, Dorothy McGuire, Arthur Kennedy, Constance Ford, Beulah Bondi; D: Delmer Daves; W: Delmer Daves; C: Harry Stradling Sr.; M: Max Steiner.
