Production
George Hamilton made Where the Boys Are and was determined to make "better, more serious movies", in part to impress his family of his then-girlfriend Susan Kohner. However, the film was a failure, suffering in comparison to Elmer Gantry.[1] It was shot in Florida.[1]
Reynolds stated, "George Hamilton beat me up in the film, Does that tell you anything?"[2]
