Little Darlings (1980)

At an all girls summer camp, two very different young teenage girls feel like outsiders. A rich girl (Tatum O'Neal) just wants to be accepted by the other kids but she's ostracized for being rich. The other teen (Kristy McNichol) comes from a low income neighborhood and is raised by a single mother. When a snooty "mean girl" leader (Krista Errickson) finds out the two girls are virgins, she challenges them to a contest. Whoever loses her virginity first will be a winner and win a cash prize. Directed by Ronald F. Maxwell (GETTYSBURG). There's an unsavory aspect to the film as two minors (they appear to be 15 or 16) engage in a contest to see who's the first virgin to get laid. To be fair, the film redeems itself at the very end when it shows the troubling aspect of teen girls having sex before they are emotionally ready for it. Both McNichol and O'Neal acquit themselves very well and manage to not let the dubious material soil their performances. The film was a big hit . With Matt Dillon, Armand Assante, Cynthia Nixon, Margaret Blye and Alexa Kenin.
