Review of Little Darlings (1980) by Judith Martin for Washington Post — 18 Dec 1997
There's an adult mentality throughout the film, and not a nice one. It gets all the smirking fun it can, then tacks on some quick sermonizing at the end. One minute sex is like a camp food-fight -- against the rules but everybody has a good time-- and the next it's the grown-up activity that leads directly to that other favorite grown-up activity -- depression.
The accompanying adult had better be prepared to explain not sex, but "Do as we say, don't do as we show.".
