Where The Boys Are (1960) Official Trailer - Dolores Hart, George Hamilton Movie HD 

Watching this with my Millennial daughters in Fort Lauderdale on Mother’s Day 2024! What a blast from my past! I remember watching this with my Mother ❤

I was a student at Michigan State during this period, and Jim Hutton's introduction always elicited loud cheers whenever this trailer ran at East Lansing's old "Lucon Theatre" on Grand River Ave.. The movie was based on the eponymous novel by MSU professor of English Glendon Swarthout who had originally entitled it "Unholy Spring." In preliminary research several years earlier, Swarthout actually took several of his students to Fort Lauderdale to study the "spring break phenomenon" first hand The opening shot of a blizzard at "a midwestern university" was filmed on the campus side of MSU's Berkey Hall located across Grand River from the Lucon (later known as the "Campus"). It was the first of four MGM pairings between 5-10 Paula Prentiss and the 6-5 Hutton whose "TV Thompson" at the time would have been a classmate of my fraternity "big brother" -- also a junior Radio & TV major at MSU. A number of Swarthout's books were optioned by Hollywood, but I defy anyone to show me the obvious unifying literary theme linking "Where the Boys Are" to Swarthout's "They Came From Cordura," "Bless the Beasts & Children" and "The Shootist!"

Even though I never saw the movie, I read in the Wikipedia on what the plot line was all about. I see it's about four college girls on spring break. So they're at an "experimental" stage in their life. The year of its release was in 1960, which would be in between the tail end of the repressive 1950's and the sexual revolution some years later. 3:03

the movie was a hit in 1960 I was 18 & watched it with some classmates....loved Paula & Delores roles ..back then film was a bit "racy" for that year.. I was thinking about it last Christmas

Where The Boys Are - was re-leased in 1060. It was a FUN Movie and All about Young Love. “Innocent” Love - The Love we all believe would and should last a Lifetime. When You Fall in Love when you are Young - It’s something you never forget as long as you live. Where The Boys Are - was that kind of Love. It was a Fun Movie and the message it send was - True Love - is something you have to work on - it’s NOT just Fun - Fun - Fun. True Love is being responsible - being able to commit to being True and Faithful to another person. That’s what “Love” is all about. Where The Boys Are - May be a Fun Movie - But there is a Lesson to be Learned about falling in Love - and I think it was plain to see. Good Movie For Everyone to Enjoy and take a Lesson From

Loved this movie in the old days!!!

Hello! 😀👍👏

0:11- Is this a movie, or one of the little bumpers theaters showed during the previews? 0:17- Oh, cut that out with the book! That's like Porky's advertising itself with a book! 0:57- Oh yeah, if it were any more rowdy, they'd invite The Buttercream Gang. 1:12- Nice try! Back to Arkham, Riddler! 1:34- "She'll stay, because of the implication." 1:48- "Well, so much for being a doctor. I've left school, because no one will stick their tongue down my throat." 2:55- And with this being the final film of 1960, she's gonna try on her stockings to wear at the New Year's Eve party.
