The Last American Virgin is a teen coming-of-age film in the same vein as Summer Break, Better Off Dead and Fast Times at Ridgemont High. The Last American Virgin is a remake of the Israeli film Eskimo Limon (1978). After the success of the original and several sequels, writer/director Boaz Davidson re-teamed with producers Golan-Globus to attempt to re-create the same success in the United States. Davidson decided, however, to change a few key elements from the original. Eskimo Limon was a nostalgia film about kids growing up in 1950s Israel — similar to George Lucas's American Graffiti, however the remake was set in then-present-day suburban Los Angeles. The soundtrack was also updated from golden oldies to more contemporary New Wave rock.
[edit] Plot synopsisThe plot closely follows the original Eskimo Limon, and revolves around protagonist Gary (Lawrence Monoson), a typical highschooler, and his friends Rick (Steve Antin) — the slick ladies man, and David (Joe Rubbo) — the "Belushi-esque" fat guy. Most of the plot involves their numerous failed attempts to have sex. One in particular when the three boys pick up three girls with the promise of cocaine earlier in the film (Instead they use Sweet-n-Low but the girls cannot tell the difference and even claim that its "the best Colombian they ever had".) And Gary gets stuck with the homely and overweight friend of the other two more attractive girls. Later in the film, a love triangle develops between Gary, Rick and Karen (Diane Franklin, later of Better Off Dead fame). Gary is secretly in love with Karen, but his dreams of dating her are over when, after helping Karen get an abortion, he finds her back with Rick. [edit] CarmelaOne day Gary happens to be delivering pizza to Carmela (Louisa Moritz), a sexy lonely older Mexican woman whose sailor mate is never home, and she hints to him she wants more than just pizza. Being too afraid to follow on it, he goes away and convinces his friends to go along with him. They drop by her home using the pretext they were nearby on a pizza delivery and decided to bring her over some extra pizzas. She lets them in, puts on music and performs a sexy dance routine, to the delight of the boys. Afterwards, she takes them in sequence - each in his turn - to have sex with her in her bedroom. Carmela's characteristic is that she moans loudly during the intercourse. Rick is the first to take initiative, and once he's done, he leaves her bedroom and sends David in. At first, David hesitates, but follows up when Carmela tells him "Come to me, my big burrito!". After, he's done, she exits her bedroom and points to Gary, but unfortunately for him just then Carmela's mate returns home. Gary and Rick manage to quickly dress before he sees them. Carmela pretends she was helping her "neighbor boys from downstairs" with their Spanish homework, at first he believes them but then David walks out of her bedroom still in his underwear and says, "What a nympho." Carmela's mate gets furious and the protagonists (with David just half dressed) have to run away. [edit] "Nice guys finish last"Eventually, Rick gets Karen pregnant and leaves her. Gary decides to help Karen pay for her abortion by selling most of his possessions and borrowing money from his boss. After the abortion, Gary and Karen spend the remainder of the weekend alone together in Gary's grandmother's house. They seem to hit it off and Karen invites Gary to her birthday party the following week. Gary scrapes up a few more dollars and buys Karen a gold bracelet for her birthday. However, when Gary arrives at the party, his dreams are shattered when he sees Karen making out with Rick. The film ends with the credits rolling over a close-up of tears streaming down Gary's face as he drives home. The Last American Virgin is memorable as the only film of the genre not to feature a happy ending.[1] [edit] Cast
