Sandra Dee Movies Ranked (21 movies items)

"Sandra Dee carries this picture. She is real good with James Darren. If you love Sandra Dee, or if you have never watched anything of hers, start with this movie."

Beach/Surf Movies Unranked (9 movies items)

"Gidget is not a traditional beach party per se. There is no musical interludes and no zany character. But, the girls do go to the beach to "hunt" men, there is a " luau" and there are a bunch of beach bums living on the beach for the Summer to surf and look at the sights. So, it qualifies as the first, and best, beach party movie."
