That was an excellent one.

hyped garbage

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

"Girl in Trouble" tells the story of a young girl, who, just before her long-planned wedding, decides to run away and explore the big world outside her town. Soon she must learn that this world is not a dream but full of crime, desire and rudity.It is hard to overlook what the film really wants to tell young women: Do not search your luck in one of the big cities, rather stay at home in the kitchen. Not a very progressive belief. On the other hand at least it is brave enough to not portray everyone in the otherwise omnipresent black and white scheme, rather we have a charming sex offender and a friendly and tough ex-stripper. Most of the plot is really predictable and won't amaze most Viewers, the only Thing I credit is the climax of the protagonist's unhappiness, which is depicted rather good in my opinion.All in all this is an at best average movie that tries to pass on a questionable morale and tries to keep traditional values high while leaving no Occasion out to Show the female lead in her undies. Nothing you couldn't miss but judge for yourself.

Girl in Trouble (1963) * (out of 4) Judy Collins (Tammy Clarke) is just a small town girl who has dreams of heading into the big city and making it big. On the way to her dream Judy hitches a ride where the man eventually tries to rape her, which leads her to killing him. From here things only get worse for Judy as she falls in with a bunch of perverts.GIRL IN TROUBLE is the type of exploitation film you'd expect from this era. The film was shot silent and we have the typical awful narration that gets us from one scene to the next. Once again I must say that I feel really bad for people of this era who had to sit through movies like this one in hopes of getting some sort of nudity.There are all sorts of problems with this one including the fact that there's about fifteen minutes worth of "story" here and it's pushed out to 81 minutes. The film is a real drag from start to finish, although there are some campy moments that get some laughs. The performances are all pretty bland as you'd expect and there's just nothing entertaining here. Even worse is the fact that scenes just drag on without much of a point.

Judy Collins escapes from her home town--she's in love with local boy Johnny but doesn't want to marry him--yet. On the way to New Orleans she kills a man who tries to assault her. She gets there, tries to get a job and MORE men assault her. She finally ends up a stripper and one day Johnny walks into the club...This was given the 1963 equivalent of an X rating--no child under 16 was allowed in the theatre. Today it would be given a soft R mostly for some casual nudity. This seems to want to be taken seriously but the pointless nude shots and a violent rape make it clear what this really is--an exploitation picture. For that it's pretty well-made--well-directed and shot. The voice over narration is OK (if overdone) but the badly post-synced dialogue is obvious. Also pretty badly acted--only the one playing Mona showed any talent.If you're into early 60s exploitation you might like this. Otherwise, stay away.

This B/W film about a naive young woman moving to the big city is not half-bad for this type of stuff. The main actress is boringly realistic in her quest for a more exciting life. The first flop-house she goes to has has incredible wallpaper in the lobby. The character of Mona is very good and when she's wearing her wrinkled evening gown she looks like she's about to attend an Ed Wood premiere. THe entire film is post-dubbed and almost everyone wears wrinkled clothes.Some decent location shots and music and it's quite the morality tale with a nice closing shot. A 4 out of 10. Minor nudity with lots of bad hairstyles and big underwear. Not bad!
