This movie was from like 1956 or thereabouts and Jim Hutton and some others were MSU students in Florida during spring break.

EDIT: 1960
Did they ever explicitly state that the students were from MSU? I've heard from reliable MSU sources that the opening scene with the students freezing in swirling snow was filmed outside the MSU Union, but I thought the narrator referred just to a "Midwestern university." Geez, MSU would've had what, 7500 students in 1960?

I also heard that crowd sounds for a movie -- maybe Spartacus, that'd make sense -- were taped in Spartan Stadium. As the story goes at halfime they had the crowd roar in certain ways to fit the script.
