Made at the Lake Como Family Nudist Resort in Lutz, Florida, this is all about J. Randolph Latimore (R. G. Armstrong), his daughter-in-law Susan (Jamie O'Hara) and his granddaughter (Karen Sue Trent) coming to terms with the death of his son and her falling in love with Johnny Patterson (Mickey Knox) as well as the elder man coming to grips with the growing need for people to be nude in public.
While this film seems silly today, it was part of a court case, Excelsior Pictures vs. New York Board of Regents. The New York State Court of Appeals ruled that onscreen nudity was not obscene and this movie is why others can depict nakedness on screen. Everyone in this is a nudist by the end. In movies like this, if you had a nude woman appear at a nudist camp, it was legal. Anywhere else she was naked, it wasn't. That's why there were so many of these films.
Director and co-writer Max Nosseck always seemed to make exploitation in the U. S. like Dillinger - starring Lawrence Tierney and written by William Castle and Philip Yordan - as well as Girls Under 21. Then again, he also made The Return of Rin Tin Tin.
Nudist camp movies may seem goofy and perhaps even boring today. When this debuted in Tampa, a 20 year old woman wasn't allowed in to see it, as she was too young. She was in the movie, so she was old enough to be nude at a camp.
