Anecdotes

Candy Stripe Nurses is a 1974 American comedy film written and directed by Alan Holleb, and starring Candice Rialson. Produced and distributed by New World Pictures, it was the last in their popular "nurses cycle" of films that commenced with The Student Nurses (1970).

Production

Director Allan Holleb had recently graduated from UCLA. Julie Corman gave him the job on this film after being impressed by a short film he had made, Heavenly Star. Holleb later said "I found out they had taken a poll at a local high school. They sent someone out with a list of 30 or so titles and Candy Stripe Nurses got the most votes...They wanted a little social consciousness, a little romance, a little comedy and a little sex.

The lead role went to Candice Rialson. "Candice just stood out," recalled Julie Corman. "It wasn't like we were down to the wire and needed someone at the last minute. We really wanted her from the beginning."

One of the leads is credited as "Maria Rojo" and is commonly assumed to be the famous Mexican actress of the same name. However this is reportedly not true and it is a different actress.

A small role was given to Sally Kirkland who Holleb says was a friend of Julie Corman's who also worked on casting.

The movie downplayed the political element that featured in earlier nurses films in favour of humour, although it was still there.
