Girls Town (1959)
8/10
Another Zugsmith classic
14 December 2022
Go ahead and throw out your money on another boring Spielberg piece of worthless, egotistical garbage. Or you can watch this American masterpiece of exploitation story telling with a fantastic cast topped by the spectacular sweater stretching Mamie Van Doren who is backed up by Gloria Talbot, Elinor Donahue, Gigi Perreau and other 20-somethings playing teens. The only very serious problem is Paul Anka. He comes close to destroying the film singlehandedly. A barf bag might be required for some viewers. Mel Torme is ok as a hot-rodding thug who wants to quote ship Mamie's sister Elinor to Tijuana unquote. He doesn't get to sing.
