Friday Fromage: 'Reform School Girl' falls hook, line and sinker
This is the weekend when Princess Di and a few handmaidens head to Captiva Island for a fishing excursion.
At least that's the story they've told me for about eight years now. I've yet to see a fish but their bar tabs travel in schools.
You can warn them to be careful until you're blue in the face but showing what can happen to women on the loose is much more effective. That's why Friday Fromage is paying tribute to the wages of sin with Reform School Girl, a 1957 exploitation flick disguised as a public service announcement.
Not to say that Princess Di and her pals are heading to reform school (although Di would certainly be valedictorian with those glasses).
Don't settle for the 1994 TV-movie version trying to pass off Matt LeBlanc as a bad boy. That's Velveeta and we strive for pure cheese. Enjoy!
