This is one of the more underappreciated episodes of MST3K. The host segments are solid, the short at the beginning is one of the best ever and they manage to turn a depressing black and white simple moral tale into entertaining riffing yet i rarely see it mentioned whenever anyone does their MST3K top ten list
It's in my top five Probably more quotable quips next to Teenage Crime wave or I accuse my Parents A lot of those lists that are out, the creators probably don't get a lot of the jokes cuz they are too young and those jokes go over their heads
As a consolation, it's got a clip on RUclips that is called the most hilarious one from MST3K. The ferryman clip. I'd say that's given it some good recognition.
Remember the scene in The Giant Gila Monster episode when the sheriff tells Chase that a man died in a car crash at the bottom of a small canyon, and it took police 19 days to find him? They were referring to Tom Pittman, the star of this movie. It was really how he died in real life.
that’s so sad because it’s true, but also pretty wild because people at the time would have understood that reference. Tom was a promising actor in the late 50’s so it would have been fairly big news.

Look, they're making fun of the character, but the actor playing Marv, Tom Pittman, is really good in this! His acting really holds the character together, and I like how he can go from shy schoolkid to confident heist planner. He had range.
I wasn't paying attention and I thought the dad character actually asked the son if he wanted to get a porn movie. I had to rewind it several times to realize it was Crow.
Well then Mabel said to me, "well why did you wear those earrings" and then we went to Nine West but we couldn't find anything we wanted 'cause I have really wide feet but sometimes I can find stuff at Payless, anywho Cindy told me that Victoria Secret was just around the corner and she said they're having a sale and she knows I'm really broke right now so I confronted her and... well...
So's what size lingerie you fit Derrek? Or was the Victoria's Secret for Cindy? I'm a little confused, when I was a kid I used to huff glue and hit my head with a brick a lot 'cause it feels so good when ya's stop...
Fortunately, I finally found out how "small" Tom Pittman was (from the trailer). Thanks to that "teacher" whose height was 1.83, I figured that Jerry Lee Alten was around 1.73 m, which is just under average male height (1.768 m).
Depressing Dad is one of my favorite characters in any MST subject. Just a fountain of riffing material. And it's great how delighted they are when the same actor (Malcom Atterbury, a very prolific character actor in his day) shows up again in "I Was a Teenage Werewolf", basically playing the same character. "It's Depressing Dad!" "Haven't killed myself yet, son!"
I actually like this High School Big Shot movie! Although the pace is a little slow, it's written and acted quite well compared to most of the stuff featured on MST3K.
It's a shame what happened to the star of this movie, Tom Pittman. He was killed in a car crash at age 26. If he had lived longer, maybe he would have been able to redeem himself with a decent acting career. We'll never know.
The thing is, limitations of the tragic...yeah..."teen"...morality tale genre aside, I think he actually is pretty good in this. I mean, there's only so much lipstick you can put on a pig, but there are several parts of this one that make me go, "Wow, the movie sucks, but he's good."
Here's something to consider: One million dollars in 1959, when this film was made, would be about ten million dollars today. That's a lot of smack for a lot of money. No wonder it ended in bloodshed.
I mean, they sure had high expectations for the bread delivery worker during this time period. The song Tom sings in the opening credits to the film is so funny, and catchy
So in short Marvin's in love with Betty even after she basically tells him to his face that she was only even talking to him so that he would do her homework for her and she blows his chance at a scholarship, and then Vince is willing to kill for her even after she tells him that she would walk away with anyone who had more money than him...Seriously guys?
I checked out the movie ratings of 2.4/10. It wasn't until the end of the movie when I realized why it's cheesy. I was ready for Marvin to expose the deal and become a hero in the town.
