Mulligan was a good actor but way over the top, his hillbilly nurse made the folks on Hee Haw look like sophisticates, Dinah Manoff has one of the most whiny, grating voices in the world (ironic, as her mom, actress Lee Grant has a sexy voice).

Nimbly opened-out from the 1980 stage version by helmer Herbert Ross, film concerns a 19-year-old, spunky Brooklyn girl Libby (Dinah Manoff reprising her stage role), who hitchhikes to Los Angeles to break into films as an actress but more importantly see her dad who left her, a brother and mom for good 16 years earlier.
