Movie night got off to a rough start with Mrs. Miniver. I couldn’t get the disc to load and after repeated tries, we settled on Summer Lovers staring a very young Daryl Hannah and and equally young Peter Gallager who end up on vacation in Santorini (the film came out in 1982). Michael (Peter Gallager) has a roving eye and eventually he ties up with Lina (Valerie Quuennessen). Cathy (Daryl Hannah) finds out and eventually they end up as a threeseome.
After a riotous birthday party for Lina where a gallon of olive oil is involved, Cathy’s Mother and Aunt appear to find the ménage à trois. One memorable scene is where the Mother and Aunt are checking into a hotel and two girls are checking out and the desk clerk asks if one of the girls douched. The other girl explains that’s what is meant by shower.
It’s a cute romcom threeseome with some angst but everything turns out well in the end. I’ve always heard about the donkeys taking you up to the top of the volcanic caldera and they showed that in the movie.
Since seeing that movie, I’ve always wanted to go to Santorini and actually rent the place the thruple did.
What I forgot was how much nudity there is in the movie full frontal for both men and women. Of course, virtually everyone in the movie was a tourist and in gorgeous shape. Daryl Hannah and Peter Gallager weren’t bad either and if you want to indulge yourself, you can see both totally neckid.
I didn’t walk today. I have lunch with Barbara and Joel. We plan to go to Mister 01 at Fat Village. That will be a new experience for me. We wanted to sit outside but there’s a distinct possibility for rain today – we need it.
After that, I suspect I’ll read a little, nap a little, and eat a little.
Stay tuned!
