A Plumm Summer (2007)
Adventure | Family
Rocky Plumm is a five-year-old boy growing up in a small Montana town in the mid-'60s. In Rocky's eyes, there's no star bigger or brighter than local kid's show host Happy Herb, who appears on TV weekday afternoons with his puppet friend Froggy Doo. When the Froggy Doo puppet is stolen, Happy Herb's show goes off the air until the doll can be found, which only adds to Rocky's unease as his folks struggle to salvage their clearly failing marriage. Rocky's big brother, Elliott, isn't especially concerned about Happy Herb's problems or the forced hiatus of Rocky's favorite show, but when Haley, a pretty girl with a yen for detective stories, moves in next door, he suggests they join forces to help find Froggy Doo. Before long, the youthful sleuths find themselves crossing paths with a pair of federal agents and a growing list of suspects as they follow the thief's trail.
