Boyfriend In Sight is about a group of bourgeosie families who spend a summer vacation near the end of World War I on a beach. A generation gap quickly develops between a rowdy group of teenagers and the adults when one of the girls is forbidden by her relatives to play with her friends any more. The movie has a large cast of characters and they are all lovingly mocked by the director. There are plentiful gags in the movie and even though few of them are that funny, the movie still exerts a lot of charm.
