Little Darlings

Directed by Ronald F. Maxwell, this 1980 comedy-drama follows two fifteen-year-old girls from very different backgrounds who turn a summer camp into the stage for a personal rivalry over growing up. Balancing humor with sincerity, the film uses their competition to explore adolescence, peer pressure, and the gap between bravado and genuine feeling. Its tone shifts between playful and tender as the characters confront expectations about identity and maturity. It suits viewers drawn to coming-of-age stories of the era. Its MagicMovieScore is 6.5.
