Sam's Song (1969)

Sam's Song/ aka The Swap Gorgeous Cinematography!

This movie had to have been made after 1968, because Nixon is president of the USA. So we start there as a young film journalist who is making a film on the president. He gets a call from his wealthier friends to stay at their FABULOUS HOME IN THE HAMPTONS!!! This movie is worth watching alone for that!! My favorite part is where Robert De Niro is pretending to shoot and be shot on the beach, re-creating a scene from a movie he saw. (In practice for the future Godfather role) He is so young and thin, and cuts a great figure in his denim jeans, blue shirt, and sneaks~~ I wish i looked like him!! young & thin!! They (he and new found girlfriend Terrayne Crawford ) run all over the beach and visit this place with a fabulous windmill and break into this wonderful house right next to the windmill~~ talk about fantasy!! Sam (DeNiro) and Carol (Crawford) are impulsive as they jump into the pool together and throw in a wheel chair along with it~~ A lovely young Jennifer Warren stars as the wife and owner of the home~~ her name is Erica in the film~~ she has a smarmy husband named Andrew, who smirks through the whole film~~ Why doesn't she leave this bum???? I won't reveal the ending, but i recommend this film for it's lovely scenes, and good acting by Robert DeNiro~~ you could tell he was on his way~~ and half the fun is getting there!!
