That Kind of Girl 1963
Robert Hardford-Davis's first feature film as producer sets the template for his next two flicks - a shocking (for the day)social content message, some rock n' roll for the kids and a minor bit of titillation to aid with a shock-o-rama marketing campaign.

Also, she takes her clothes off.
