Rock, Pretty Baby reigns as one of the first and best of the ’50s rock ’n’ roll films! It’s a real jumpin’ good time, featuring 16 vintage musical numbers by Rod McKuen, Henry Mancini, Bobby Troup and Sonny Burke…plus the acting talents of teen heartthrobs Sal Mineo (Rebel Without a Cause) and John Saxon (The Unguarded Moment)! Saxon plays high-school senior Jimmy Daley, who yearns to be a professional musician, much to the disappointment of his father (Edward C. Platt, North by Northwest). Jimmy sets out to prove he can make it in the L.A. music world, pawning the law books his father gave him to buy an electric guitar for his jazz-rock band with wisecracking ladies’ man Angelo Barrato (Mineo). They get off to a shaky start, but they’re soon getting ready for a major talent contest that could prove to be their big break. Luana Patten (Fun and Fancy Free) is the other half of Jimmy’s boy-girl interests, while Fay Wray (King Kong) plays his charming and understanding mother, and Shelley Fabares (Clambake) adds a cheeky performance as his adolescent sister named Twinky.
