I saw a trailer for MY TUTOR while I was working my way through BCI Eclipse' Drive-in Cult Classics 1, 2, 3, and 4 (featuring Crown International Pictures releases) on DVD.

My Tutor is another early-'80s teen sex comedy. The story is about an 18-year-old high school student who desperately wants to lose his virginity before summer ends. Besides that, Bobby (played by Matt Lattanzi) flunks his French class and his wealthy parents hire a tutor named Terry Green (played by Caren Kaye) so that he can get into Yale.

The film has a couple of stupid subplots as well; and, unlike other Crown International releases, my Tutor is very, very light on plot… and, plausibility! And, while Caren Kaye holds the whole movie together, it just plods along going nowhere.

There is very little action for the first 45 minutes; and, then, the big payoff hits right about the 55-minute mark. Then, it just plunges back into inanity; and, more about nothing, including the father's infidelity, and bad pickup lines…

I just don't know if I can make it through the last half hour.
