Review by anonymous (posted on 20-Nov-2006)

All the typical buzzwords come to mind: campy, farcical, lame, low-budget...but still this movie is worth a watch, not if you're in your teens or 20s or even 30s, but maybe if you're in your 40s or better. You definately have to be in the right mood when you view this film. That is, have your head set for a low-budget, black-and-white film with repeated scenes for filler and bad music. But you also get stellar performances from Roddy McDowall, Tuesday Weld, and Lola Albright. And you get one thing more: you get a look at what we all see. You see what's cool, what's hip, what's "It," what's the best of the best...when you're a teenager. And with 40+ years between then and now, you also see how silly everything we think is cool, hip, etc. eventually becomes. So maybe teens and 20s SHOULD watch this movie, just to know how campy, farcical, and lame all they hold golden will become in another 40 years. --DVicD
