Pretty racy for a movie with Annette


No pun intended.

I just saw it on Showtime, and unless I got the name wrong, this was a pretty racy movie for Annette. There were women stripping down to nothing at a party. Of course, not Annette. I'm not a prude or anything, I just thought it was pretty interesting.

I just need some love so turn out the lights and I'll be left in the dark again.

This movie has the 50s sensibilities, but it was filmed at the dawn of the drug age.

Walt would never let his favorite Mouseketeer do anything unseemly.

I had SUCH a crush on Annette when we were kids:)

We all had a crush on Annette when were were younger. I was 13 when this movie came out.
Its heartbreaking to see what MS has done to her.
We can only wish her well now, and keep in mind that inside that devastated body, she's still Annette.

There were several scenes which were very suggestive of hanky panky going on. A much more mature movie than typical beach blanket movies.

The scene you mention with women stripping down to nothing at a party is from Thunder Alley 1967 also starring Fabian and Annette Funicello not Fireball 500.

It's only one girl and there is no nudity.

Your'e right though, kind of raunchy for Annette it would seem, what about her getting drunk scene in Thunder Alley also?
