The Things We Did Last Summer

About This Movie

So, 'The Things We Did Last Summer' is this quirky blend of comedy, documentary, and music that feels like a bit of a time capsule for '70s humor. The original SNL cast really brings their A-game, showcasing a series of skits that delve into their summer escapades. Each segment has its own vibe, with varying pacing that keeps things fresh. The highlight for me has to be the concert scene featuring Belushi and Aykroyd as the Blues Brothers; it’s just electric. The whole thing feels like a spontaneous jam session, and the performances are just so raw and lively. It embodies that carefree summer spirit perfectly, with just enough absurdity to make it stand out.

This film is one of those interesting curiosities from the late '70s that collectors tend to seek out for its unique format and the chance to see the original SNL cast in a different light. It hasn't seen as many re-releases as other titles, which adds to its scarcity on physical media. Given its episodic nature, some collectors appreciate the eclectic mix of humor and music, while the performances, especially from the Blues Brothers, are a significant draw. If you find a copy, it’s worth a look for those who enjoy that era's comedy vibes.
