is this the best we can do? one of the most underrated movies of the last 40 yrs and was up last year in full for two weeks. clearly the aspirations of young California girls meant little in the eyes of American moviegoers...while a CBS broadcast success, it was a box office failure. for us California teenagers, a film never forgotten, in both its nudity and satire.
+Grunt Ovenbarf it was a failure and never rereleased. Was double billed everywhere and that releasing pattern usually indicated make money as quick as possible before reviews hurt business...Eric Shea from Poseidon adventure is Bruce derns son.
Colleen camp the emcee at the beginning, is the girl in close-up as the credits begin. she was great in valley girl. as Deborah foreman's mom. Although Die hard 3 was probably the only box office smash she appeared in
I remember seeing this on TV when I was about 11 and even at that age I could tell this was a thinly veiled striptease...another girl's "talent act" is showing how to pack a suitcase but she has big bosoms so she wins the regional contest. Also I remember the subplot about some guy trying to join a fraternal organization that makes him kiss a chicken's butt to join.
This is gold...and Annette OToole pulls it off, so to speak.❤
"That girl had a wooden foot."
Can't tell how many times I've used that line, as well as "you're the perfect Young American Miss."
simultaneously, while at the same time... gotta love that Melanie.
Britt Overbaugh A feast for the, eyes and ears.
“Soon with shiny nonsense my floor was littered!” Hahahahahahaha This is such a great movie.
Stop the contest and give here first prize. Any girl who could have topped that performance would have changed the movie's rating.
Cool, thanks a lot. This movie has been burned into my brain for ages, now I just have to find it and money pay cash

+Britt Overbaugh Agree sir. Most people are just vaguely familiar with the theme from this flick.

Nudity, and satire. One topless picture the teen horndog took with a polaroid photograph.
🤣🤣🤣 you're who the movie is making fun of. Perfect.
I live in Australia and had to buy this movie on DVD from Canada.

I remember it that way too.

Is there a scene in this movie that has naked girls in a changing room or something? I think I saw this when I was very young... I could be wrong
The son of the organizer took a polaroid camera to snap pictures of the contestants changing backstage.
