Average Rating: 
Rating: - A box-office hit!
If people don't know about this film or simply can't remember much about it, must be because they weren't moviegoers in the early months of summer, 1980. I was fifteen at that time and saw "Little Darlings" in an actual theater, then once again in another theater, then at a DRIVE-IN. It was a huge hit. It packed theaters. It was also the original version(not the version UPN shows or the butchered version originally aired on NBC in 1983 or currently on Comedy Central: songs are dropped, discarded footage replaces "risque" footage, and lines are ludricrously overdubbed). It's actually an uneven film that tries mixing seriousness and slapstick together(like an R-rated Parent Trap!), but the ease of Kristy's colorful, natural performance pulls it together. Tatum looks lovely, but seems disinterested (a lot of heavy sighing, like she's bored--although her scenes with camp counselor Armand Assante are rather sweet). For many early video prints, background songs were changed due to publishing rights, but at least all the right scnes are there. Bypass this on TV and get the video. It's a charming piece about the foibles of growing up.
Rating: - A Darlin' Movie
I first saw this film when I was barely an adolescent and hardly remembered anything at all except it was about two girls on hijinks at summer camp. Now after viewing it for the second time about fifteen years later, it's not at all the silly, bubblebrained teenage fluff I vaguely but falsely remembered it to be. The beginning half seemed the usual fare of two girls--Kristy McNichol and Tatum O'Neal--vying with one another to lose their virginity first, but then takes a surprising and poignant turn by becoming sincerely serious and depthful. Although O'Neal is enjoyable enough and downright endearing at times as a cultured, romantic rich girl, it's truly Kristy that steals the show with her poignant portrayal of a tough kid from "the wrong side of the tracks" who on the surface appears to be ready for anything and not afraid of anyone but then wisely realizes (albeit belatedly) that she has been pushed into something she was not yet ready for. Also great are two young men who would soon be well known--a hot Matt Dillon and a very sexy Armand Assante who become Kristy and Tatum's objects of affection respectively!
Rating: - little darlings-best film of my life,best memories of 16 !
this film was a great inspiration when i was 16 years old. It takes me back to the excitement,pleasure and'no worries' of being sixteen. What a great age to be. Matt Dillon is just a hunk and Kristy McNicol is just cool. I wil show this film to my daughter when she gets to this 'inquisitive' age, congratulations to all that starred in it. Even 20 years down the line,it hasn't really dated,good acting and producing all around. 'little darlings' will be around for a long time yet i figure..........'Spot-on' film.......julie, carlisle,cumbria,uk.
