One word: Mamie Van Doren, 3 November 2000
5/10
Author: blazing_l from Queens, NY

I tried and tried not to look at the breasts, but Mamie is so convincing! If not for her endowed assets, my attention would've been flipping all over the place. Supposedly in th 50s, juvenile delinquents do time picking cotton on the farm for the man in the 10 gallon hat. He's not very nice and manipulates everyone in this film. The only thing keeping the teens going is their rock n roll in which Mamie jiggles and wiggles (even admitting it through song) all over the place. She's very good at what she does. By the way, did she have any dialogue in this film? My mind must've been elsewhere.
