RICH GIRL 80s flick with Jill Schoelen
TOMBOY 80s flick with Betsey Russell

Have you seen either of them? Are they good?
Thanks.

Hee hee. I thought you were calling Isis names.

Yes, I own both of them. I LOVE Rich Girl-I think you'd love it. It is about a Rich Girl who decides to not take her Dad's money and gets a job in a night club, and falls in love with the lead singer of the band, and she ends up singing with them...they are kind of a rocker band-so I think it is right up your alley.

Tomboy- I like Betsy Russell- that's why I got this movie...it is watchable, but the storyline is pretty weak, but for the "type" of movie it is, ya gotta take it for what it is.

In your eyes Betsey, Jill and Phoeboe can do no wrong!
Will have to check em out in May (I spent my video "allowance" for April already!)

Definitely "Rich Girl" over "Tomboy". I love Betsy Russell from "Private School", but this movie was not very good.

Was Betsy Russel in "Angel"

I Loved Angel, Mae the Transvestite was a superb character and Solly was great.

Has anyone got this on DVD yet? all I have is an old Betamax copy.

Hey Bigworld!

Actually, Donna Wilkes was in the original "Angel", but Betsy Russell was in "Avenging Angel" which was the sequel. If the movie had Mae it was probably the first one (unless there were flashbacks in the second movie) because he was victim of the killer in the first one.

Yip getting them muddled up

I loved the first two "Angel" and Avenging Angel

the third was O.K but Angel 4 was unwatchable

Well, the movie I recommend for Betsy Russell over Tomboy would probably be Out of Control- it is actually pretty scary, and I think it is more up your alley-mamamia.

My favorite Jill movie...which I don't know if you've seen, but I think you'd love is Curse 2-The Bite.

Phoebe can do wrong...I didn't like her at all in Date with an Angel, or even Paradise, and I won't even bring myself to watch Drop Dead Fred. She is one person that doesn't look good with short hair, and every movie she had awful hair in, I didn't like her. Jill cut her hair all off before too-and I hated her hair short. Betsy actually cut her hair all off too- I guess everyone does at some point, but I definately like them keeping their hair long.

Hands down Rich Girl.
I watched Tomboy the other day and it was not good. A few scenes were very awkward to me. I didn't realize Tomboy was Betsy Russell until recently either. It wasn't a complete waist...whoops....waste as It did show plenty of skin so I'll applaud the writers for that.

BTW. If you haven't seen Betsy Russell in awhile you should Google her. She is hotter than she was back in the 80s.

I looove Tomboy. I have the dvd plus vhs tape and everyone here knows that i´m a sucker for these Crown International Pictures sex comedies [Cool]

I also like Rich Girl and you can find the movie thread on 90s section. The soundtrack smokes!

I have to say I am ashamed that I haven't heard of Rich Girl.

That is so funny, to see this topic from long ago,and to see people commenting- who I had forgot all about. I got to meet Jill Schoelen and Betsy Russell, and Jill is so down to Earth and such a sweetheart, I talk to her alot on Facebook now. Betsy was pretty nice too. Rich Girl is definitely the better movie (to me)- I love that movie. Jessie- you should see it.
