"We picked up on each other and we swung and now it's too heavy.".......2006-05-03

What an absolute disaster. With a sin-promising title like WEEKEND WITH THE BABYSITTER I was expecting some seductive at first but then hot and sweaty topless/bottomless action. Instead I got something so painfully boring and drawn out that it might be did caused brain my damage permanent.

If I was married to an abusive junkie and I miraculously got a weekend alone with the young freelovin' babysitter I would definitely be doing something besides riding motorcycles and eating cheese omelets, but no not this guy. Jim Carlton is a stuffy wine bag movie producer and when he gets alone with the babysitter she takes him out on the town to see what's really going down. You dig baby? First stop they go to a hippie club and talk and talk and talk to some oh so cool hippies then they have a prolonged weed smoking scene with the hippies ("Now this here is a joint. J-o-i-n-t. Joint.") then Jim falls asleep. Next day they ride motorcycles all day then *finally* we get to the lovin...I think, it was so slow moving and poorly shot that I couldn't tell what was going on.

And it just goes on and on like this until finally in the exciting (ha!) conclusion Jim and his new hippie friends beat up the drug dealers that have kidnapped his junkie wife!!! What's going on here?! Ohhhh! It hurts! Make it go away.

What a strange trip its been...well at least for these actors who obviously never took an acting class! As "amateur films" go it ranks in quality of direction with your daughter's fourth grade play (no offense parents), but watching the film is a sort of weird, perverse pleasure. We see heroin addiction among the rich, wealthy middle-aged men falling prey to teenage Lolitas, 70's nudity "a naturale," and a lame Hollywood excuse for promoting the smoking of pot. Nonetheless, I enjoyed the film because the story never seems to flag and moves at a fast clip. The ending is melodramatic and as what you would expect. Supporting cast are more credible the leads in this one. George E. Carey should have stuck behind the camera--not in front of it. The female lead, Candy (Susan Romen) is sweet, but rather dull. Not surprisingly, IMBD lists this film as her one and only film role. My ex-girlfriend liked it...then again, she has no real sense of artistic taste. But don't be too disappointed with the film.

When I saw this movie for the first time, I was pleasantly surprised. Although this may be a B movie, I think that many people may like it. Susan Roman plays Candy, a character that takes your heart away. She comes to baby-sit when she is not needed, because the mother, Mona Carlton, is taking too many pills and confusing dates on the calendar. So, since Candy is not needed, she can leave. If I was the babysitter in that instance, I would not wait for the father, Jim Carlton, to drive the car out of the garage for Mona, I would just leave on the word "go." But Candy is nice enough to stay and read the poorly written script Jim has about people her age. Candy decides Jim needs a lesson in what it is like to be young in her generation, so she invites him to the club where her friends hang out.

What I liked best about this movie was the scenes with the Japanese motorcycles. They looked good the way Candy and Jim drove them. I also liked the way that Candy is so smooth and easy about everything. Candy just lets life be. When she wants something, Candy gets it. But she never forces the situation. And her friends are all people you would want to hang out with for a while. I also liked the character of Jim played by George E. Carey. Jim is always taking life with Candy as an adventure, and he treats Candy like she should be treated. He kind of reminds me of the guy at the office party that you like but always tells the bad "one-liners." But Jim is so loveable that you don't mind his nerdiness.
