The Flip Side of DAWN


After the success of DAWN: PORTRAIT OF A TEENAGE RUNAWAY, NBC hoped lightning would strike twice with this sequel revolving around Dawn's boyfriend, Alexander, played by Leigh McCloskey. Alexander is also a runaway who gets involved in prostitution, but Alexander ends up selling himself to men as well as women. Juliet Mills played one of Alexander's most satisfied female clients and Alan Fienstein played a male client. To be perfectly honest, the main reason I watched this was because Leigh McCloskey was quite the piece of eye candy.

Me too! I was just a kid, so I had to sneak and watch this flick. Instead of scaring me away from thoughts of becoming a teenage runaway, it made me want to hitch a ride to Hollywood. Once there, I fantasized, I'd find a way to steal Alexander away from that pesky Dawn.

You mean, all this time, we coulda been friends?
