Strange line
As Mamie Van Doren, as Sally Blake, is walking to the witness stand someone in the crowd says she's the "Mamie Van Doren type". Odd. Bad movie, too.
shareNot the ONLY bad line. This movie is so godawful it's brilliant. Try having a drink or smoke something before watching. It's hysterical, and the dialog amazingly bad. The whole bizare plot with Steve Allen, a middle aged man, prowling around filming half-naked college dudes and chicks at the lake while Jayne Meadows is some kind of peeping tom with binoculars is a riot, and only natural that they should have something in common. LOL! That Maime Van Doren and Conway Twitty are in this is even better...
shareMstanley-1 I see you caught this film the same time I did....I definitely had enough libations in my system when I was watching this - absolutely hilarious. Steve Allen acted in a manner as if he took this role seriously! While I watch and appreciate the "classics" that receive critical acclaim in abundance, my guilty pleasure is awesomely bad films with bad dialogue, cheesefests, scenery chewing, and delicious camp. I made a copy of this film and I'm filing it away right next to my copy of "Hot Rods to Hell" and "The Girl in The Black Stockings".
shareFirst let me say that I love cheesey old movies. But this one annoyed me. I thought all the set bits went on about two or three minutes too long. The Elisha Cook/Mamie van Doren conversation. Steve Allen's rant, Mickey Shaughnessy's rant, the youngsters frollicking...all of them just long enough to seem interminable to me. Now "High School Confidential"...There's a bad movie with pacing!
