Sir Cliff Richard rose to film stardom in 1961 with the release of THE YOUNG ONES, a musical comedy that also spawned a top ten album and a number one single for Mr. Richard and his backing band, The Shadows. Already a star for his string of late 1950s hit songs, Sir Cliff parlayed this success into a string of hit films, three of which are collected here: THE YOUNG ONES, SUMMER HOLIDAY (both of which are available separately), and WONDERFUL LIFE, which is only available in this collection.
