	Description:		It's movie night in the clubhouse this week, as we take a look at the 1983 TV movie Quarterback Princess - and are thoroughly charmed by it. The original '80s Sweet Valley vibes are strong with this one, as Canadian teenager Tami Maida - played by Helen Hunt – spends a term at an American high school and becomes their star quarterback. We expected clichés, but instead we got a surprisingly warm, naturalistic depiction of a girl who defies convention and is celebrated for it by her lovely family and the cutest football team ever. All this and a character who basically is Jessica Wakefield! Oh, and some football stuff that went totally over our heads. If you like, you can watch the film on YouTube before hearing our recap of the whole thing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETCCvJx3nFI Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
