Glossy time capsule
LuvSopr19 January 2023
Crazy Girls/Teenager in Love has a basic plot, but tries to make up for that with presentation: Gauzy music video style fantasy sequences featuring Jesie St. James and Marilyn Jess posing and contorting, to the candle-heavy grotto where our characters watch Sophie Guers being gangbanged by men in period French costumes and wigs (which reminds me of a Police video made a few years later - the candle part, not the gangbang), and even Dominique St. Clair's pouty, pretty New Wave look (in some glimpses he looks like a young toughie; in others he looks as if he's wearing as much makeup as the ladies).

The plot has St. Clair walking in on his father (initially credited on IMDB as Dany Berger - it's definitely not Dany Berger, even if one of Dany's pseuds is used) having office fun with two young ladies. In an amusing character moment, the father's idea of discretion is to simply slip on his suit jacket and continue the conversation naked from the waist down. Dad gives him his medallion, which could be the start of a Leisure Suit Larry game, but is instead the prelude to Pop sending his son off to one of his lothario pals (Alban Ceray).

You'd think the whole rest of the movie would be about St. Clair's character being thrown at various ladies, but that takes a while to get going. Of the two "maids," St. James shares a bed with Ceray, and never goes beyond voyeurism and self-pleasure with St. Clair (she does have a sexual encounter with her masseur, who delivers the only money shot we see in the film). Jess and St. Clair do have a scene toward the end of the film, but the emphasis is more on artistry than heat.

The heat arrives with St. Clair and the wonderful Annette Haven, her as some sort of instructor who tricks him out in a sailor suit before they have sex near the fireplace. All the technique and flash in the world doesn't really match genuine chemistry, and this is a very worthwhile moment to go out on.
