Dirty politics in a student-body election, climaxing in a shame faced public confession stolen directly from Preston Sturges's Hail the Conquering Hero. A routine distortion of high school life, with overaged, overskilled actors and with hardly a parent, a teacher, or a textbook in sight; at least halfway serious in its intentions, however, in spite of its predilection for such amusements as a slapstick spaghetti fight in the school cafeteria. One good, laughable line: the resident football hero, in despair, explains to his un-understanding girlfriend why he flunked his college tryout: "I'm a veer-option quarterback; they want a straight drop-back passer!" With Bruno Kirby, Lee Purcell, Didi Conn, and Tim Matheson; directed by Martin Davidson. (1978) — Duncan Shepherd
