Wow, this film is a real doozie as far as beach and party movies of the 60s was concerned...the acting is grade Z and I cant imagine the producer paid any of the actors more than a few thousand bucks apiece to make this "gem".....Mary Ann Mobley, Chris Noel, Nancy Sinatra, Joan O'Brien are the eye candy in this typical teenage boy loves girl fluff that was going around in mid 60s movies ala all the beach party fluff from Frankie and Annette...if it made tons of money for American International pictures you would guess other producers would hire young starlets for penny ante salaries to continue this stuff. The producer had no script except to hire some popular English singing groups for cameos like the Dave Clark Five and the Animals and some struggling bands like the Standells.....this film did not require any acting ability to speak of....this compounded by wooden, painted mountain scenes in the background of a ski lodge and phony cotton snow on the ground at a California ski lodge gives you an idea of the budget. Mary Ann Mobley is a stitch...she pretends to hate a music producer who wanted her to pose in a skimpy outfit but then falls madly in love with him in one 20 second scene at the ski lodge....ugh!!! All Nancy Sinatra can do is stand by a doorwall at the lodge and act like she is a smitten newly wed and mumble in sexy tones about being married....a four year old could recite her dialogue....actress Chris Noel though departed after this film and went to Vietnam according to legend and met and fell in love and got married to an army officer.....she also did a radio pop music show on the airways for the soldiers in Vietnam in the latter 60s......all in all if you can stand grade zero acting and poor sets you will like this teenage scruff.
Instantly forgettable and pretty bad color "rock n roll" film that's deadly dull. It's got all the clichés, like the older generation who doesn't "get it", and young people dancing and strutting their stuff in revealing outfits. The female eye candy, in the form of pretty Mary Ann Mobley and her other girlfriends, are about all there is to watch in this deadly dull timepiece. Some of my favorite '60s groups, like The Animals and The Dave Clark Five, get to perform a few numbers on stage, but their material is just as underwhelming.* out of ****
An excellent example of 1960's culture and music, "Get Yourself a College Girl" should be interesting to fans of the era's "beach blanket" movies. The plot appears to be secondary to the music, but the picture is a fun way to relax for an hour or so. The musical groups are nice to listen to and Joan 'O Brien, always a lovely and competent actress, is enjoyable as instructor and student advocate.
A somewhat better sex-on-the-slopes comedy than, say, "Ski Party" (which was nothing more than "Some Like It Hot" for the "Beach Party" crowds). Mary Ann Mobley has been forbidden to associate with men, but she is swamped with possibilities while vacationing with her prep-school girlfriends at a ski-resort. Pal Nancy Sinatra has been secretly married, and uses the time away to get 'acquainted' with her husband (each of her scenes features Nance in a new nightie, answering her door in perpetual states of marital bliss). Of the musical cameos, my favorite was burly Stan Getz playing behind Astrud Gilberto (WOW!). This sequence alone should snare jazz fans. As a movie per se, the plot is irrelevant and the characters one-dimensional, but as your basic one-box-of-popcorn time-filler it has humor and color. One could do worse! ** from ****
