Rather old for college


Any reason why the Medfield basketball players all looked to be in their early thirties? I wondered if perhaps they were acrobats hired to perform the bouncing stunts.

They probably were acrobats or stuntmen who were, if not in their thirties, well above high school age. In older movies and even some newer ones, the actors hired to play teens weren't really teens. Some looked much younger than their years but others did not.

I think Biff Hawk (Tommy Kirk's character) looked to be about college age...

Sure but he was the only one the others looked like parents instead of students lol

I think he was 19 years old when he filmed this movie....
