(Flash Reviews)
This is an honest, a super realistic, love story between two unpopular young adults. Simply put, Marty is good guy who never gets a woman to take his offer for an innocent dance. He meets a upstanding woman named Clara in the same boat. Many of his friends try to push him into situations that take him away from Clara; he humbly declines because they have a strong emotional connection. The stories focus is on the two them awkwardly gaining confidence with themselves and each other as everyone around them tries to tear then apart because of their own self concerns. Definitely a film from a different era that would be hard sell to produce today yet the moral should be required for high school kids and they are so worried about truly unimportant things.
