The Gidget Goes Hawaiian was written by Frederick Kohner, based on his own experiences and his daughter Kathy (the real Gidget). The song incorporates Hapa Haole (Hawaiian-flavored pop) and surf-rock elements, reflecting the early 1960s era of lighthearted beach movies and pop hits.
FILM LOG LINE: (Comedy/Drama) Sandra Dee became a model for countless teenagers in the late 1950's when she played Gidget, a sad-faced youngster who doesn't quite measure up to the chesty, bikinied girls on the beach. Her mom's reassurances come true when two surfers start paying Gidget some attention.
