Trivia
Star Kim Evenson was 1984 Playboy Playmate of the Month, so she had no problem accepting a role with full nude scenes. But she grew frustrated when producers kept adding more nudity after watching her do the first scene. She agreed because she didn't want to get fired. She also said posing nude for Playboy was different than filming nude scenes for this movie. For Playboy, she was nude in front of a photographer and an assistant. For the film, she was naked in front of other actors and a large production crew of mostly men. She also had to rub up against Lance Sloane for their sex scenes.

great sex comedy

Okay, maybe this is no American Pie but this movie does have it's moments. Chris, the lead character is likable and beth, the new girl at school he lusts over is absolutely gorgeous. Wonderful moments in this film make up for the cheesy dialogue and music in this film. Sylvia Kristel once again delivers a very sensual performance as the slighty older woman across the street who gives Chris love advice. If you liked this movie check out Private Lessons, also with Kristel.
