Mother and me so we’ve been giving this project some further consideration what project is that Daddy this uh trip to Rome oh oh well I thought that subject was closed well yes uh but as you say these tours are closely supervised and if your

Heart so set on it but well it’s not so much that my heart is set on it Daddy it’s more my mind your mind yes well in these troubled times I feel that it’s the well it’s the duty of every thinking young American to try to understand the problems of our

Neighbors across the sea well you might join the Peace Corps and let Washington Finance you oh I’ve thought of that Dad but you have to have a college degree and since this tour to Rome’s already been arranged oh this one well no not exactly but practically the same with a

Lovely sweet little old lady who’s going to be our chaperon and who’s going to handle everything well it’s actually better than that tour everybody’s so on Rapport and stuff what do you mean on Rapport oh mother you know what that means it means congenial oh I know what

On Rapport means and I know what congenial means but we haven’t the faintest idea of what you mean well after all Libby and Lucy are friends of mine and you know Jeff and judge and Clay is a friend of theirs and judges an is going to be our chaperon so wouldn’t

Daring Journey for a young girl oh thank you mother I’ll treasure it and keep it with me always well now we’ll go shopping and get some new clothes oh thank you mother I love you and I’m very proud of both of you oh close me Russell

Lawrence I couldn’t have had a boy well then it’s true it’s really true I am on my own at last totally and completely on your own my dear old friend Paulo the other day I was delighted to come upon your article Italy 1963 it brought back vividly and

Poignantly the day 1944 when I was parachuted behind the lines and you hauled me out of a tree and shared your last bottle of keante with me and then the months that followed the bow sessions of talk of life and love and the price of eggs the talk of life and

Love and the price of eggs what’s the matter bad news no only a nuisance a letter from my old friend Lawrence of America he’s got a little girl in Rome for the first time and he wants me to keep an eye on her oh well darling

That’s lovely why don’t you ask her to come and stay with us and then Pao can learn to speak engy huh oh no she’s with other children and her father wants her to think she’s on her own and he does not want her to know that he’s written

To me or that anyone is looking after her [Applause] [Laughter] Oh I won only in one piece thank you Danny but how can I watch this child not seem to watch her I’m not a detective but my very talented husband will find a very clever solution sure I’ll have a brilliant idea uhhuh Jette H that’s her name [Laughter] oh jet Wow hold it hold [Applause] It All right do you realize where we are why sure we’re in Rome Italy we are not we’re in the Eternal City Romulus and RIS the alium way Caesar and his Legions the Tyber Rosano brzi I wonder where he lives in Hollywood and for heaven’s sakes Lucy don’t be provintial open your

Eyes look at a new world broaden your horizons that’s what I intend to do if I can now Look isn’t he the perfect Roman he might have modeled for Michelangelo did you hear what them Dodgers did yesterday yeah they moed the Giants but I’m worried about the infield where till they get the Candlestick pum F come on Gage Jeff mats Matthew Matthew Matthew well don’t you Have Al we have a reservation for theora but she didn’t say anything about anybody else you had the flun English and pass Italian sir I’m sure you don’t understand my friend’s Italian here she is you mean your aunt barks like a dog quiet Darlings husher

Beach you know what the trouble is with you what you’re too much am I really Moon doggy Hey listen about that Moon doggy bit that’s great when we’re in Malibu but now that we’re in Rome I think you should try to control yourself okay but it’s still okay when we’re

Cute but just a little bit Hefty I bet she really start away the faster you know you could have modeled for her the same classic features and the same uh heroic proportions oh Chef as your Americans say Do not K me makes you want to throw up doesn’t

It and now I will show you one of the best preserved statues of ancient times we are approaching Now The discus of myON notice the technique it’s naturalness of form and boldness of movement um did you say discopolis that’s right well you must be wrong Daniela because the discopolis is in the

Vatican Museum you are correct jet but that this cabulous is just another of the many copies this one by lelot is regarded as the best replica of the myON bronze which has been lost for centuries is it magnifical magnifical in 1938 this piece was sold to Adolf Hitler but fortunately it was

Brought back to Italy in 1948 and added to this collection and now if you will follow me you’ll see the most beautiful Roman frescos found Near translation entrance forbidden Translation forbidden to touch Statues nothing but an umbrella and a pair of sneakers in the lost and found Department don’t worry about G Jeff she’s a big girl now yeah besides she knows we’re supposed to meet back at the hotel I’m not worried about it she had to go and get lost what did you think

  1. Made in 1963 just before the beatles invaded the usa
    And longer hair became the
    Fashion
    The well tanned crewcut male
    Was out!

  2. From this franchise, the two earlier Gidget installments were really enjoyable: The first one starred Sandra Dee and the second one Gidget Goes Hawaiian had Deborah Walley in the lead. Gidget Goes to Rome was also not bad. Cindy Carol for a stark newcomer was pretty good and showed great promise. Her character was funny, smart, well-read, a great conversationalist and she' was also interested in the human world. The common star in this franchise is the very handsome and likable James Darren, who gets to also sing the title number. Cindy Carol was not much in the looks department though her competent acting transcends this shortcoming. A highlight of this movie, which includes the sights of beautiful Rome, is the lovely European star, who plays the guide for visiting tourists. Her sweet face and slight smile with mischievous twinkle in her eyes reminded me of the once gorgeous Claudia Cardinale.

  3. Spoiler ahead: …. So Moondoggie takes Gidget back just because he's been rebuffed by Daniela? So romantic & heart-warming. So kind!
