Summary:
Join movie critic Carrie Rickey for a cinematic celebration that stirs up memories of summer camp, family holidays, bungalows, and, of course, a little summertime romance. Critically-acclaimed, award-winning, and incredibly popular, these films memorialize and explore a quintessential part of the American Jewish experience: summer.
Don't miss Gene Kelly and Natalie Wood in this poignant and romantic melodrama. In one of the first instances of Jewishness so openly represented on film, she plays a camp counselor and he is a would-be dramatist working at a nearby theater. Even though they both come from upper-middle-class New York Jewish families, her parents do not approve of their relationship. Based on the 1955 Herman Woulk novel. Directed by Irving Rapper.
