The movie “Harper Valley PTA” (based loosely on the famous Jeannie C. Riley song of the same name) was like a lot of those Disney summer movies of the 70’s like the North Avenue Irregulars, with its zany women and their wacky hijinx, but for a Barbara Eden fan like me, it was more like pure heaven!
As I’ve stated many times before, I’ve always had a penchant for those “I Dream of Jeannie” episodes when she wasn’t in the harem costume and much preferred her to be dressed in “regular” dresses, blouses and outfits, so a movie like this that showcased exactly that was a dream come true!
Not only did I get Barbara draped in the most swingin’ of fashions, they were all presented to me in all her bra-less glory that only a movie could provide! Ahhh, ya just gotta love the seventies!
And if that wasn't captivatingly stunning enough, when she WAS wearing a bra, why, that would just about be the only thing she’d be wearing! Yep, Harper Valley PTA: Camp Factor: A+, SEXY Factor: AAA+++!
I remember seeing the movie poster for this way back in 1978 and thinking, “Whoa, Jeannie Looks frickin’ fine in this!” Sure is nice to know that when I finally got around to seeing it, it didn’t disappoint!
