Teenage Mother (a.k.a. The Hygiene Story) is a 1967 American exploitation film directed by Jerry Gross and starring Arlene Sue Farber.[1] The film is about teenage pregnancy and hygiene. It was billed as "The film that dares to explain what most parents can't."[1] The film also features a graphic actualization of birth.
Reception
An author likened the film to a grindhouse edition of the 2007 film, Juno.[2][3]
In a brief interview on the DVD extras of the 2007 documentary film Heckler Comedian Fred Willard, who made his film debut with a small role in Teenage Mother, reports that the audience at one screening of the film booed when his character interrupted an attempted sexual assault of the female lead character.
