One question about the movie that I do not understand. Since the Tri Upilsons did not want to take the girl in the first place why did they prevent her from joining another house that did want her? She seemed to have many cards.

What do you think is the reason? This is a movie! Fiction!!!!! Did you read naraht's post?

this thread brought up memories for me. lots of details i had forgotten. the velvet rope across the stairs was a gentle reminder of "no men" and curfew. yeah, curfew - we'd be locked out!

She was a legacy. Yes, it's fiction, but at the time, it was true that some groups would take another vote at the end of the pledge period. That system only makes sense if sometimes pledges didn't make it.

Many, maybe even most, groups outside the NPC still do.

Except for Mitzi Gaynor (Adelaide), the principals were in their mid-20s at the time. But yeah, the styles made even teenagers look middle-aged.
