READY FOR LOVE (La Boum) (1980) - ♦♦♦

Directed by - Claude Pinoteau

Written by - Daniéle Thompson

Starring - Sophie Marceau, Claude Brasseur, Brigitte Fossey

"This French teen girlie flick was a hit in the whole of Europe. Viewed nowadays, it actually feels a lot more realistic than whatever equivalent we get today. The story of teenage love is not merely portrayed as an innocent crush, but a hormonal change in the male and the female body and psychology. Not too bad, although the character’s ethics tend to be too obnoxious to fully care for them."
