| Overview: | If mommy can be a stripper, so can I!
Dig this, and dig it real. Jennifer (Gillian Hills) is the beatnik chick with kicks on her mind in this tragically hip and utterly hilarious sendup of teen rebellion in late-fifties London.
When Daddy-O brings home a new wicked stepmother (Noelle Adam), Jennifer and her mob of delinquent hipster friends (Adam Faith, Oliver Reed) show them no mercy, drinking and dancing the nights away, showing the adults once and for all that cool is its own reward.
When Jennifer learns about her new stepmother's shady past, nothing can stop her from stirring up trouble, not even running away to become a stripper at the seediest girlie show in London!
With a wonderfully sleazy theme by John Barry ("James Bond", "Born Free") that sets a tone of surrealism and intensity, "Beat Girl" consistently rates as one of the best teenage exploitation movies to come out of the U.K. Delve deep into the English beatnik scene, hang out in cave clubs, and go from being bitzed to total boredom, all while listening to jazz and rudimentary rock'n'roll of hopped up teenage Girls In Trouble!
