A Plumm Summer is a 2007 adventure-family film directed by Caroline Zelder. It starred Owen Pearce, Chris Massoglia , Morgan Flynn, William Baldwin, Henry Winkler, and Lisa Guerrero. The film follows a teenage boy, his young brother, and a new-to-town teenage girl as they try to find a marionette from a local television show which has been stolen and held for ransom. Meanwhile, the brothers' father struggles with alcoholism and their mother tries to hold her marriage together. The film is based on a real event that occurred in 1968 in Billings, Montana, the hometown of screenwriter T. J.... Lynch. A popular locally-produced children's television show, Happy Herb & Froggy Doo, features magician Happy Herb and his wisecracking marionette sidekick, Froggy Doo. Froggy Doo is stolen and held for ransom, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation is called in to investigate. Elliott Plumm used to watch the show, but now feels he is too grown up to do so any longer. His five-year-old brother, Rocky, is a Froggy Doo fan, however.
