Stickin' Together

About This Movie

Okay, so 'Stickin' Together' is a curious mix of adventure, comedy, and drama that really reflects the laid-back vibes of the late '70s. You’ve got this Hawaiian beach bum, right? Suddenly he’s the surrogate uncle to these five orphaned kids, which makes for some interesting dynamics. The tone feels warm and inviting, almost like a breezy summer day. The pacing, while a bit slow at times, gives you space to really absorb the character interactions, and the performances feel genuine, even if they’re not quite polished. It's distinctive for its offbeat premise, and it’s interesting to think about how it served as a pilot for a series that didn’t quite stick around. You can see the potential for slice-of-life storytelling in a tropical setting, which is a neat angle for collectors interested in TV history.

This film is somewhat of a rarity in collector circles, particularly due to its short-lived TV series incarnation. The original pilot for what became 'The Mackenzies of Paradise Cove' has seen limited releases, making it a distinctive piece for those who appreciate unsung TV history. While it's not widely circulated, it holds a certain charm that draws interest from collectors looking for unique narratives from the era.
