Written by Herman Raucher, Summer of'42 is one of the screen's most haunting romances. A nation is caught up in a war that will forever change it. At a New England beach colony, 15-year-old Hermie (Gary Grimes) is caught up in a passion that will forever change him: he's infatuated with 22-year-old Dorothy (Jennifer O'Neill), whose soldier/husband is away at war. Director Robert Mulligan ( To Kill a Mockingbird ) keeps a sharp eye on period detail and the comic potential of growing up, keenly observed in the work of Grimes, Jerry Houser and Oliver Conant as a "terrible trio" of fast friends. An Academy Award winner for Michel Legrand's score, Summer of '42 is the stuff of the fondest movie memories.
