In my big library i go through periodicals. They used to keep copies of Variety magazine. In an issue from i believe April of 81 during this film's spororadic release did you know this woman was voted future star by some Texas festival? Yet as i look on the database this is her only credit, including anything on t.v.! What became of her?

I read an interview with Tim Raynor and he said Cecile Bagdadi pretty much dropped off the face of the earth. I imagine she's some suburban housewife somewhere.

Thanks. Are you sure it's the same one? It is a pretty unique name.

On the DVD commentary for Final Exam, she says that after making the movie she realized she wasn't cut out to be a movie actress. She said she didn't have a tough enough skin. She is currently a stay-at-home mom.

I got the blu-ray release of this yesterday and there is an interview with her in it! I was really surprised to find she didn't do any other films because she looked so familiar when I saw her in this, I swore she was also in one of the Fri the 13ths or something. I thought she was really pretty and acted well, I was surprised to see she dropped out of acting.
