Review of Claudelle Inglish

In her teenage years, pretty blonde schoolgirl Diane McBain (as Claudelle Inglish) begins arousing the opposite sex. She loves handsome student Chad Everett (as Linn Varner), who looks great in close-up. But he goes off to join the Army, leaving Ms. McBain feeling lonely and unsatisfied. Due to her poor Georgia roots, McBain's sharecropper parents Arthur Kennedy and Constance Ford (as Clyde and Jessie) are asked to consider their daughter as good marriage material for older, less attractive Claude Akins (as S.T. Crawford). However, McBain prefers good looking young men like Will Hutchins (as Dennis Peasley). And, she finds a few more. Then, she goes for dads and out-of-towners. As McBain gets less discriminating, the movie gets less believable. Basically, McBain exchanges sexual favors for expensive gifts, but never obliges Mr. Akins. He is asked to consider Mama Ford as a sex date. It all leads to a rather ludicrous ending.
