The Last Reunion

Spring Reunion is a 1956 American romance comedy drama film, directed by Robert Pirosh, the film stars Betty Hutton and Dana Andrews, with Jean Hagen, Sara Berner, Robert F. Simon, Laura La Plante, Gordon Jones and James Gleason. It was the second film to be produced by Kirk Douglas' film production company Bryna Productions and was released by United Artists. The story is based on a 1954 television play by Robert Alan Arthur for the Goodyear Television Playhouse. Spring Reunion centers on the fifteen-year reunion of the fictional Carson High School class of 1941. It was a screen comeback for actress Betty Hutton, her first film in five years since her departure from Paramount Studios in 1952, after the completion of the musical Somebody Loves Me. Although Hutton's performance was praised by several critics, the film generated little interest and failed at the box office. It was Hutton's last feature film.
