What poor Jimmy (a quite cute boy!) needed most was an Adult Friend (possibly one who engaged in "hands-on" recreational activities with Jimmy) to assuage his fears. Much anxiety on Jimmy's part could have been easily avoided! Or do you disagree? Would you have volunteered? Let's have a show of hands...;-) ------ "Am I Normal? A Film About Puberty For Boys" is a short educational film released in 1979 (often associated with 1980) that follows 13-year-old Jimmy as he navigates the confusing physical and emotional changes of puberty. While originally intended for sex education in schools, it has since gained a cult following for its dated style and "unintentional hilarity". Film Overview The story centers on Jimmy's quest for answers about his changing body, covering topics like male sexual development, peer pressure, and the readiness to date. Key Scenes: Notable moments include Jimmy searching for information in a bathroom stall and a famous, awkward encounter with a zookeeper who offers unsolicited advice on male anatomy. Production: The film was directed by Debra Franco and David S. Shepard. Sequel: A companion film for girls titled "Dear Diary: A Film About Female Puberty" was released shortly after in 1981. Legacy and Availability Today, the film is primarily remembered for its campy acting and "after-school special" vibe. Critical Reception: Reviewers on platformslike IMDb and Letterboxd often rank it alongside cult comedies due to its "supernormally exquisite" awkwardness. Where to Watch: While hard to find on physical media, clips and full versions can occasionally be found on YouTube and educational archives like BYU-Idaho Online Learning Media ------ Am I Normal?
