Great acting. Her mother is not a good one. What mother is jealous of her own daughter. Good movie.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Good film !!!
Her mother wasn't very loving even though she claimed to be. It was very heart breaking when Haley called home and mother rejected her plee to come home 😢
'i, remember when one was growing up as a teen myself was homeless myself and know what it feels like to be in such a place as this, and then a few yrs later got my own place a one bedroom place small but it was mine… and then also met some teen girl/s who were homeless just like me, and helped them out, some robbed me while one was asleep, and some did not… my heart always goes out to theses young girls, been there myself, know how it feels… just to have somewhere safe and warm to put one head down … and hot drinks and hot food in the belly… some even tried to take advantage of me in that way told them they do not have to, as their company was good enough for me… let them have hot showers and even stay with me till they got back on their feet with a good job, fell in love with all of them… as most have been abused in so many ways, and my heart went out to them… and growing up in this rotten world full of horrible people… many just do not care… and still see it going on… in all countries… young children of all ages… it's so heart breaking… why is this world so cruel…
Would not ever trust the Social Workers, and Police and their Fake ass Courts all theses places are all Corrupt with many many crooks within theses places…
One has a Huge wealth of money cash and cannot even access it, as they know one will buy a huge place with many many bedrooms, and it be safe in the countryside… and rescue as many young girls off the streets… and keep them safe… so many are stolen and Trafficked by all theses LEGAL GANG Members… but even here there are many greedy narcissist control freaks who are all liars thieves betrayers disloyal dishonourable who are all gatekeepers…all great pretenders…but in fact are all crooks and corrupt… there are only a few good souls out there… but even theses are very rare and hard to find… Radcon Tu… xoxox…
All one will say to theses Teens… keep safe and do not trust anyone, this is what one has learned…
1977.

Linda Paul is a believable actress. Not much info on the Internet about her
This then-notorious made for TV movie about teen (and younger) prostitution was an enormous ratings hit in 1977. The subject matter is still potent today but the effect is vitiated by the fact that it IS a TV-movie: the generic music cues, the obvious commercial breaks, the overt speechifying in which the filmmakers tell, don't show. And don't get me started on the absurd juvenile detention shower scene where both girls are wrapped in towels throughout! Some of the performances come through: Carolyn Jones is both despicable and heartbreaking as our heroine Hailey's insecure, ambivalent mother (the dynamic between her, Hailey and the dad is fascinating in ways that the censors no doubt wouldn't allow to be further explored); Kathleen Quinlan is stunningly beautiful as Hailey's BFF on the streets; best of all, Clifton Davis is incredibly chilling as the pimp, with his and Hailey's "turning out" scene so good it belongs in another movie. Linda Purl is passive as Hailey, but that may be what was required; Lou Gossett is wasted and David Soul is just awful; you want to give up on him early on. All in all, this material might've been better served at the time as a Roger Corman/ Jonathan Demme drive-in exploitation movie: it would've been more entertaining and would've come off less like a public service announcement sending off mixed signals! 6/10.
Very nice Movie
Valuable lessons for both parents and children.This is still going on.
What a lovely mom saying 'things have been so much better since you been gone' and hanging up. That just broke my heart. Always liked Linda Purl in a movie and this is no doubt one of her first.
Thank you for this movie I love all the old TV movies I really miss them, this was really good, sad but good thanks again 👍🎥🍿
The one I remember had a sad ending, as far as I remember. Maybe it’s the same movie, but I don’t think so. Thank you for sharing, it’s a good movie.
This is my first time seeing this movie. And TBH Im not going to make it all the way through. How sicking it is to see a young woman put out. And to have a black pimp only makes it worse. This movie is disgusting! Anyone who enjoys watching it is sick too.
Her mother ought t be barren. How in the world can any woman stand to be that sickly desperate for the attention of a man as to compete with her blood daughter for it? My goodness! What a wonderful film and sad at the same time. I love David Soul. He was so handsome and masculine. His acting was phenomenal. May all women and ladies of the night who want to get out, find the courage and support to do so! Blessings to all!
It's coming up on a year: R.I.P. Louis Gossett Jr.
Great old 🍿 movie, when there was a solid storyline 😅😊
Made in 1977. Linda Purl was kind of a big deal at the time. Didn't want to see Carolyn Jones in such a sour part but she plays her well. Vic Tayback, eventually became the Mel of Mel's Diner of TVs "Alice" sitcom.
This is so typical if a TV Movie of the Week casting. This is such a typical scared straight TV Movie of the Week. Putting series actors to work during their time off between filming seasons. Some of these films were pretty good. Some not so much.
Victoria tayback. I knew he was a good guy😊 Kathleen Quinlan ……😊❤
Great movies the black guy was nice enough to let her live with his family until she could grow up, it was sad for the mother to not let her come home because of jealously of her father, but it happens with women sometimes and their daughter they start giving them a hard time when they start looking like women, then they run to the city too young to get a job just looking for a place to sleep.
Lovely movie with great famous casts rip David soul💖💖💖🙏
We're supposed to believe she's 14?
please do not fall for the scams. thank you
This film may be old but this is reality because it's still happening today. Prostitution and sex slaves..
Curly Soul hahaha
