Die Heiden von Kummerow und ihre lustigen Streiche Year: 1967 Country: East Germany, West Germany Actors and Actresses: Jörg Resler, Karin Heidemann, Wolfgang Hinz, Gerald Schraml Tags: boy skinny dip, girl skinny dip Review: A group of children play a game on their island home of Ruegen in the Baltic Sea. They revise an ancient heathen ritual one cold March day by standing in the frigid water. The one who lasts the longest in the icy cold will be referred to as the king of Kummerow. They befriend a poor shepherd who is something of a social outcast, and the group makes fun of a pompous preacher and the mean, miserly miller who tries to drive their shepherd friend out of town. The children rejoice when their nemesis the miller is hauled off to jail to pay for his past crimes in this engaging, heartwarming story. West German producer Walter Koppel used an East German crew, taking advantage of a recently developed color process called Orwocolor. - Dan Pavlides, All Movie Guide Movie added at: 31.08.2013 |

Mrkácek Ciko Year: 1982 Country: Czechoslovakia Actors and Actresses: Filip Menzel, Jakub Stepán Tags: boy skinny dip, girl skinny dip Review: Roman Hlava grew up with his diplomat parents in Latin America where he had been home-schooled by his over doting mother. The over indulgence of affection and praise has given the boy an over confidence. This is quickly squashed by his new peers when the family returns to the Czech Republic. This leads to neurotic tics and the nickname Mrkácek the 'Blinker.' A stay at a children's camp provides new friends, acceptance, an appreciation of nature, a new outlook on life, and loss of the tics. (I did my best to piece together machine translated bits and pieces. I hope it bears a decent reflection of the movie.) - IMDb Movie added at: 31.08.2013 |

Walkabout Year: 1971 Country: United Kingdom, Australia Actors and Actresses: Jenny Agutter, Luc Roeg, David Gulpilil Tags: boy skinny dip, girl skinny dip Review: A privileged British family consisting of a mother, a geologist father and an adolescent daughter and son, live in Sydney, Australia. Out of circumstance, the siblings, not knowing exactly where they are, get stranded in the Outback by themselves while on a picnic. They only have with them the clothes on their backs - their school uniforms - some meagre rations of nonperishable food, a battery-powered transistor radio, the son's satchel primarily containing his toys, and a small piece of cloth they used as their picnic drop-cloth. While they walk through the Outback, sometimes looking as though near death, they come across an Australian boy who is on his walkabout, a rite of passage into manhood where he spends months on end on his own living off the land. Their largest problem is not being able to verbally communicate. The boy does help them to survive, but doesn't understand their need to return to civilization, which may or may not happen based on what the Australian boy ends up doing. - IMDb Movie added at: 31.08.2013 |

Podranki Year: 1977 Country: Soviet Union Actors and Actresses: Aleksei Cherstvov, Zoya Yevseyeva Tags: bathing boy, boy skinny dip Review: The original Russian title Podranki can be translated as War Orphans. The protagonist is an adult writer who undergoes a flashback at the drop of a hat. He recalls how he was orphaned when his father was killed in World War II and his mother committed suicide. He remembers the appalling treatment afforded him by a sadistic orphanage official. And he muses over his losing contact with his brothers and sisters. This is why the grown-up writer is currently involved in lobbying for better treatment of Russian orphans. Orphans caused a minor stir in 1977 when it became the first Russian film in nearly two decades to be chosen for the Cannes Film Festival by the festival judges, rather than being submitted by the Soviets. The film did not see the light of a carbon arc in America until 1980. - Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide Movie added at: 31.08.2013 |
