I would love to share this movie with my granddaughter but apparently it is not available for purchase. If you were a fan of Annette's and haven't had a chance to see this movie you've missed a good story. Making it even better is that it is told by Annette herself. I started as a fan of the Mouseketeers. Later I was hooked on the "beach" movies. I read all those teen magazines growing up to follow her story. It was only as I got older that I realized they printed "fluff". Watching this movie you see her real life. It wasn't all beach parties and songs. Annette lived an interesting life and never let the downs keep her there. I hope those "in charge" release this movie for purchase...or, at least, show it again on t.v.
