ProductionOriginal NovelThe novel Harrison High was published in 1959 when John Farris, the author, was 22.[1] He wrote it when 20 while a student at the University of Missouri; it was based on his high school experiences in Memphis, Tennessee. ("Harrison High" though was fictional.)[2] The New York Times book reviewer said it was like "an interminable adolescent bull session."[3] DevelopmentFilm rights were bought by the Drexel Film Corporation in April 1959, who arranged to make the film through Columbia. Dick Clark, host of American Bandstand, signed to play the lead.[4] Jerry Bresler who had a multi-picture deal with Columbia, was assigned to produce and he hired James Gunn to write a script.[5] Paul Wendkos signed to direct in June.[6]"Most pictures about teenagers are wrong," said Clark. "They are older people's concepts of how teenagers act... I doubt if there ever can be a truly honest portrayal in films. Not all girls are beautiful and all boys handsome, as they are in films... [But] the script is fairly true to life. Most teenagers are normal."[7] The cast included several young actors under contract to Columbia including Michael Callan. Warren Berlinger had just been in Blue Denim. ShootingFilming started 12 August 1959.[8] The campus and classroom scenes were shot at Hoover High School in Glendale, California; most of that school's buildings were later torn down and replaced with a more contemporary look in the mid-1960s to comply with California's building codes for schools. ReceptionThe Los Angeles Times called the film "an agreeable surprise."[9] The film did not make Varietys list of top earners for 1960.[10] References1. ^Sullivan, R. (1959, Mar 15).
