Several cast members performed musical and comedy routines for the rest of the cast and crew on the nights no filming took place. more
Goofs:
Revealing mistakes: The first time Angel and Randy go to the boathouse it is night time. At one stage Angel is beginning to undress and there is a window behind her. You can clearly see outside that the filming was done in broad daylight. more
Quotes:
Ferris: You sort of want me, don't you?
Gary: Ferris, maybe I do, but that's not the point. You see, to you, sex is poetry and phrases and everything you learned in books. You know, but when you're really in love...
Ferris: I am!
Gary: Ferris, I'm not a prince. I'm a teacher. You know, in a year you're gonna look at me and you're gonna wonder how you could have even thought of loving me.
Ferris: That's not true.
Gary: Unfortunately, it is.
Ferris: What if next year I came back and I still felt the same way? I'll be old then. Do you realize that I am almost the only virgin in camp? Every girl knows this secret life except me. Look at it this way. It'd be a learning experience.
Gary: Come on.
Ferris: Where are you going?
Gary: I'm taking you back.

Little Darlings is a classic teen movie but the appeal is that it can actually be enjoyed by all ages. I have seen this one and one half times. I FIRST saw it when I was a kid but I actually think it can be enjoyed as much or more as an adult. Little darlings is both a cute movie and a fun one-although it's a light movie, the characters go through and tackle, issues all young girls deal with in a fun non preachy manner and is pretty accurate in many places too. The reason it is so much fun to watch as an adult is for nostalgia purposes. Set at summercamp, it sort of takes you back to your youth. The movie is dated as anything and when I recently caught it again I almost had to laugh at the dated aspect but the fact remains it can still be enjoyed today.Teens will identify with it, adults will reminded of times gone by.
