Review of Little Darlings (1980) by Elizabeth E — 21 Mar 2009
My summer movie. This film has every element I believe a film should have. Teenage smoking, Inappropriate sexual relationships, a leggy Tatum O'Neal age 16 with freckles, Armand Assante as a camp counselor with a v.
hairy chest, and above all else, Matt Dillion, 16 years old, feathered hair, pure sex, dumb as a rock. This is cheesy, poorly written and completely beautiful. The most touching scene is when Tatum O'Neal confesses her love for camp counselor Assante and he lets her down easy, telling her if she were 21 he'd fall madly in love with her, with this, she runs blissfully through the meadow in her pure white empire waist nightgown, breathtaking.
Oh, and Matt Dillon's jeans are REAL tight.
