About This Movie

So, 'Call Her Mom' is this quirky little gem from '72, directed by Jerry Paris. It’s got that distinct TV movie vibe, you know? The pacing is a bit erratic, but it has its charm. The story centers around a waitress who gets roped into being a house mother at a fraternity, and it leads to some unexpected feminist themes that were pretty ahead of its time. There’s a playful tone, mixed with a sprinkle of raunchiness that keeps it interesting. The performances feel very much of their era, with a certain authenticity that’s hard to find nowadays. Even if it’s not groundbreaking, it’s got a unique place in the landscape of early '70s television films.
