Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Don't Make Waves is a 1967 sex comedy directed by Alexander Mackendrick, starring Tony Curtis, Claudia Cardinale, Robert Webber, and Sharon Tate.Carlo Cofield (Curtis) is road-tripping along the Pacific Coast Highway in southern California when a chance encounter with exotic Italian artist Laura Califatti (Cardinale) leads to the destruction of his VW Beetle, which apparently contained all of his worldly possessions. Owning literally nothing but his underwear, Carlo takes refuge with Laura, who as it turns out is the kept woman of Rod Prescott (Webber), the boss of a swimming pool company.Carlo uses his knowledge of Rod's personal life for a bit of soft blackmail and lands himself a job selling swimming pools to the rich residents of Malibu, CA. Meanwhile, he meets and is instantly enchanted by the appropriately named "Malibu", a surfer girl (Tate). Further romantic complications ensue as Rod's wife Diane learns of his infidelity, while Laura starts falling for Carlo.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })One of only a handful of films made by Sharon Tate before she was murdered by the Manson Family in 1969. | |

Diabolus ex Machina | |
| Don't Make Waves / int_1e1aa82a | comment |
Diabolus ex Machina: The climax of the film comes when a torrential rainstorm causes a mudslide which sends Carlo's house sliding down the cliff, while all our principals are inside. While that sort of thing can happen in southern California, it still comes out of nowhere. | |

Blatant Lies | |
| Don't Make Waves / int_40bb59d0 | comment |
Blatant Lies: Rod told Laura that he can't divorce his wife because she's a bedridden polio victim. So Carlo is pretty surprised when he meets the ambulatory and very attractive Diane Prescott. | |
