Aquashows in ch3, 10, 14, 19, 23 of 25; she either swims or waterskis. The waterski finale is amazing.
Otherwise, this is shrug-worthy. She's chasing VJ, but dating her swim partner, and in NY get picked up by TM. Always ambiguous whether she's trying to make VJ jealous or really trying to forget him. So in the end I don't care who she ends up with.
1st film for Carroll Baker, who has a small part. Cyd Charisse has a cameo.
MGM, dir. Walters; 6+
