But for this franchise, it was really time to end. The recent films have been consistently bad and yet, after this one, there were still three more. They made 13 films between 1970 and 1980. really prolific, but quickly only means to make money and the films had no quality features indeed anymore, unless you count the physics of some of the female actresses. Certainly not their range though. And there were also some changes. No more street interviews and they tried to make them more comedic. Sadly these approaches included the likes of fart humor on several occasions, so that they were just never funny. It seems they ran out of material as this movie also only went for under 80 minutes, while most of the previous films were around the 1.5-hour mark.

This film here came out roughly half a year after the ninth movie. The director is Walter Boos again. He directed previous "Schulmädchen" movies already and also worked on the German Oscar nominee "The Devil came at night" 20 years earlier. The film's writer is Günther Heller. He wrote all of the "Schulmädchen" films. You will see a very young Heiner Lauterbach in this movie, early 20s and still with long hair. Also, you may have heard of cast members Max Grießer and Annemarie Wendl, both known in Germany.

There is nothing new to these films anymore. Nothing you have not seen in a similar way in earlier films already. Moral is the core of this movie, so basically all the sequences deal with this issue. Be it photos of cheating partners, relationships with great age gaps or starting to date your ex-girlfriend's former step-wife. All of them morally wrong, but not legally wrong matters. Oh and there is a massive Exorcist parody in this one. You know the way, in which the priest gets the devil out of her, don't you? Yep, exactly like this. Church and sex. Another taboo, they were not scared of anymore. Sadly, it was never a funny parody and the sexual scenes are not particularly arousing anymore either. On a random side-note, one of the actors looked exactly like Justus von Dohnányi. I think it was Paul Glawion. Anyway, bad movie. Don't waste your time and the final moral sentence about schoolgirls by the narrator has just become pretty cringeworthy by now and here, it is particularly bad.
