On the surface this film seems to be a typical 1960s teen-comedy love story. However, do not be deceived. It is a biting satire that is years ahead of its time. After every scene, we were left scratching our heads and wondering "What the Hell was that about?"
The story concerns Alan "Mollymauk" Musgrave (Roddy McDowall) and Barbara Ann Greene (Tuesday Weld) who are about to start senior year in High School. New friends, Alan will do anything for her. And the way that he gets things done is what eventually gets him into trouble. Terrific cameos from Harvey Korman as the school principal and Ruth Gordon as the mother-in-law.
Available: Netflix, Amazon
