Youngest Miss America contest and their usual collateral issues!!!
21 March 2023
Miss America made part of the American culture that spreading worldwide, in this picture the producers try expose the behind the scenes the whole contest, this early drafting of the dancing scenes, poems sequence, choreography of all contenders, the personal interviews of each one and the fashion show for all them in different outfits, all this fully monitored by a chief of the board Brenda (Barbara Feldon) also comprises the board member of the jury the most prominent citizens of the small town Santa Rosa.

Meanwhile the famous contest comes the usual collateral issues concerning the whole stuff, as when one member of the jury a loudmouth car salesman Big Bob (Bruce Dern) is spotted by photographed the naked girls at bathroom to sell for perverted teenagers, caught in act he was sent to psychological treatment, in other hand Brenda that was in charge with the contest had a had matter with her husband with alcohol abuse.

Between the girls contenders also have the troubles, under strong pressure the girls commit some mistakes and errors during the rehearsals, also during the official appearances, further appears others troubles to overcame, as the ramp located in from the audience, the wacky manager Wilson (Geoffrey Lewis) demands the withdraw due such space fits more chairs to sell at first row, displeasing the expensive choreographer Tommy (Michael Kidd).

Anyway an average kind of dramatic satire, pay attention in the newcomers Melanie Griffiths, Annette O'Toole and Colleen Camp as the gorgeous one, a slight sexual oriented neither!!

Thanks for reading.
