Summary

This amusing film recalls what it was like to be a boy in the 60's when Kennedy was president, the Bomb was a real scare, Pez candy was cool and girls definitely were not. Steve and Peter are part of a group of young boys who love to play war games and make fun of their female counterparts.One day, the boys' world is suddenly turned upside down when a game of "British Bulldog" unravels out of control causing their mothers to enroll them in Marilyn Hotchkiss' charm school. Stubbornly resistant at first, the boys gradually become receptive to Miss Hotchkiss' instruction and begin to notice the allure of the opposite sex.
