Huh. They made Jacob Have I Loved into a movie?
I think I saw this movie in grade school? Or something like it. I went to a Catholic school and one time we all got these flyers about being able to take home a free VHS tape for a few days and I was interested (and they didn’t tell us which movie we were going to be taking home) and wound up with something like this. Looking back, it was probably a ploy to get us to buy the other movies by the company.
I was not expecting that revelation about the “robust system for selling films over the phone” but I probably should have been on the lookout.
I remember this movie, some teacher, or maybe it was a substitute, show this in class one day. I haven’t thought for years and until today forgot about it, but now that I am thinking about I remember it wasn’t the worst movie they show us in school. I think that this dumb football movie that ended with a whole town going bankrupt just because a high school team lost a game
When I read the title I thought for a brief second I was in for the American knockoff of the German late 70s series “Die Magermilchbande” (the skimmed milk gang). Then I read who shot this movie and my concern grew. Now I’m glad that it was something different and upset for other reasons, but I also kind of want to see the Mormon spin on a group of schoolchildren being evacuated to the countryside in 1945 and having some adventures there as well as being scared about the front closing in and continuing to flee. They’d really screw it up, but maybe it would be so bad that it became entertaining again…
Do we ever find out where they came up with the name Buttercream Gang? It sounds like somebody pitched, ‘like the Apple Dumpling Gang but stupider’ and whoever was in charge didn’t realize they were kidding.
I must say i genuinely appreciate these looks into the world of christian media detritus, on account as I was raised in a unique part of california so far in the hills and hippie dense that I am missing most of these kinds of touchstones, except for a stray bibleman vhs found on a sleepaway theater expedition with zero else entertainment.
