The Flamingo Kid (Used)

Teen superstar MATT DILLON (MY BODYGUARD, LIAR'S MOON) comes of age as an actor of enormous scope and talent in this unanimously acclaimed charmer from director GARRY MARSHALL (HAPPY DAYS), also starring RICHARD CRENNA, HECTOR ELIZONDO and JESSICA WALTER. THE FLAMINGO KID has been called “laugh-out-loud funny," "the perfect gift" and "a movie worth getting in line for"— it is one of those rare films in which gifted performances and a sharply etched script leave you with a story that rings true and characters who loom larger than life.

Everything was settled for 18-year-old Jeffrey Willis (DILLON), the plumber's son from Brooklyn: one last summer of carefree fun before college. That was until his friends come speeding up in their 1960 convertible to invite Jeffrey for an innocent day at their parents fancy beach club on Long Island.

Suddenly, a summer of packing groceries and lusting after stock girls becomes a season of discovery. Jeffrey gets a job as a cabana boy at the El Flamingo Beach Club-a world of rich and shapely coeds, gin-playing card sharps and wealthy snobs. From his first cabana encounter with Carla he is hooked, and lured to a world distinctly different from his working class roots

1963, It was a summer of innocence, and of change a summer of awakening for THE FLAMINGO KID
