青春旋律 (1981)
Puberty Blues
苏是 70 年代后期的澳大利亚中学女生，她的和周围的女孩没什么不同：喜欢盯着冲浪男孩幻想或与冲浪男孩做爱。女孩们必须遵守许多奇怪的习俗，例如当男孩在身边时，不吃东西也不上厕所。 丑女孩有两种选择——婊里婊气说自己讨厌男孩，或者对男孩犯贱但会被看不起。 每天下午，男孩女孩在海滩上、汽车里以性、酒精、派对打发时间。父母和老师都在努力让孩子们“正常地”生活，但孩子们并不吃这套……

Puberty Blues is a 1981 Australian coming-of-age comedy-drama film directed by Bruce Beresford, based on the 1979 novel of the same name by Kathy Lette and Gabrielle Carey. The film stars Nell Schofield and Jad Capelja as teenagers in the Sutherland Shire in Sydney. It was both a commercial and critical success in Australia. It was followed by a TV series adaptation of the same name in 2012.
Production
Television writer Margaret Kelly was working at a writing workshop at a suburban theatre where she met Kathy Lette and Gabrielle Carey, who had written a number of unpublished stories about growing up in the surfing beaches of southern Sydney. Kelly showed the stories to producer and writer Joan Long, and optioned the film rights.
Long first approached Gillian Armstrong to direct but she turned it down. Then Bruce Beresford read the book and wrote asking to direct:
I bought it [the novel] while I was waiting for a bus in North Sydney. I went to get a chocolate or something and I saw a pile of these things sitting on the counter. I thought I'd buy one and read it on the bus going home. It was remarkable, a very well-expressed book. And the girls were only fifteen. It was a sort of insight into the way of life of those kids, which was a revelation to me...
The movie was made with the assistance of the Australian Film Commission, who provided $413,708. The lead roles were cast after an extensive selection process.
Nell Schofield, said that "It's a very honest and realistic movie. It touches on this and it touches on that. I really like it. It's subtle and doesn't preach: 'This is the way of life.'" Schofield felt that "Different sections of the audience will perceive different levels. The parents who go and see it will come out and either believe it or it will give them a bit of a jolt.
