Rich college fraternity boy Russ Lippincott (Mark Damon) tries to get small-town beauty contest winner Elaine Peck (Dorothy Johnson) to fall for him by making a play for her 16-year-old sister, Carol (Luana Anders).
This “family drama of adolescent love” has some of the worst acting and dialogue ever committed to celluloid.
In real life, Dorothy Johnson was crowned Miss Oregon in 1955 and was first runner-up in the Miss America Pageant of 1956.
