Alley Tramp

This is a black and white film from the 1960’s which details a 15-16 year old girl (the script can’t decide which she is) accidentally sees her parents doing it, then falls in love with her third cousin and sleeps with him which then awakens her sexuality. Her dad is cheating on her mom. Her mom is cheating on her dad. And she’s spending at least one night a week at a hotel with her cousin, Phillip. Eventually, the girl comes home and overhears her mom doing some random from a bar. The guy comes into the dining room to drink a beer and she seduces him into sleeping with her. Then she can control her mom by black mailing mother into doing whatever she wants under fear of telling her dad. The psychiatrist diagnoses her with nymphomania and offers to put her in a mental hospital to cure her. The final scene is mom and dad smiling at each other saying they’ll straighten out their own lives so when she gets out of the hospital, she’ll have a normal household to come home to. Stupidest plot ever. I also hate that 30-year olds play the parts of 16-year olds.
