| Summary |
When rock star and teenage heartthrob Conrad Birdie gets drafted, the nation's teenagers go haywire and Conrad's songwriter, Albert, faces unemployment. So Albert and his girlfriend organize a nationwide contest in which one lucky girl wins a farewell kiss from Conrad on "The Ed Sullivan Show." Kim McAfee turns out to be the lucky teenager and Conrad's whole entourage moves into her quiet Midwestern home -- much to the chagrin of her ever-irritable father and her jealous boyfriend. The result is chaos and a series of hilarious romantic complications. |
