Dave D A very daring film for its time (1964). It departs from the typical teen angst dramas of the day to offer a frank portrait of peer pressure on youths. It also offers a window into the sexual pressures of the early era of the Pill, when the values of the late 1950s run headlong into the increasing sexual activity of the 1960s. Free-flowing camera work (by RM Bellamy) and a jazz score (by Jack Dale) add energy to the story. Kent's second feature in his "Vancouver trilogy," was successfully distributed in the USA under the title "Caressed."
