CAREN KAYE MAKES FOR AN EXQUISITE 'MY TUTOR' EXPERIENCE
 |
| Caren Kaye in MY TUTOR Year: 1984 Rating: ***1/2 |
Another 1980's sex-comedy combining various attempts at awkward teens trying to lose their virginity ala THE LAST AMERICAN VIRGIN, but with THE GRADUATE (or HOMEWORK or LOSIN' IT) theme of a sexy older woman coaching a shy younger man, MY TUTOR has pretty much everything...
Particularly thanks to titular tutor Caren Kaye, actually not that much older than failing student/shy rich kid Matt Lattanzi, who, seeming as if Vincent Spano had missed a few acting lessons, is fitfully vulnerable...
 |
| From the Opening of MY TUTOR |
Cutting back and forth to Matt and wacky buddy Crispin Glover (even wackier than usual) and cocky instigator Brandon Clark, involved in nighttime escapades that break from the budding mainline romance... yet the movie almost entirely belongs to Kaye, hotter than the younger ingenues remaining just beyond the grasp of her student...
And, overall, she balances enough well-acted drama (stuck in a bad relationship with a cheating yuppie while dodging advances of creepy rich dad Kevin McCarthy) for MY TUTOR to age surprisingly well: her sheer class and natural beauty raises the bar on the sex-comedy template.
