Pretty good cast, unfortunately the topic of sororities is explored in an incredibly bland way (apparently the original novel explored religious and racial prejudices in the system, which would’ve made for an infinitely more interesting and insightful film, but of course that didn’t happen because the 1950s were the 1950s)
Jeanne Crain gives a good performance as the lead Liz, but the real MVPs of the film are Mitzi Gaynor and Carol Brannon, who are unfortunately relegated to nothing supporting, bordering on bit parts. Despite their limited screen time they’re the most interesting parts of the film
