Robby Benson went from journeyman juvenile player to full-fledged star in 1973's Jeremy. Benson plays the titular 15-year-old musician who falls in love with fellow high schooler Susan (Glynnis O'Connor), an aspiring dancer; he is supported throughout the relationship by two loving, understanding parents. Director Arthur Barron's stylistic flourishes (such as shifting-focus close-ups, zoom-ins, and "groovy" atmosphere shots) firmly place this picture in the '70s. This marked the first of a handful of Benson/O'Connor teamings; the stars reportedly dated each other for a time in real life. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Robby Benson went from journeyman juvenile player to full-fledged star in 1973's Jeremy. Benson plays a 15-year-old musician who falls in love with fellow highschooler Glynnis O'Connor, an aspiring dancer. Arthur Barron's direction is rife with such 70s cliches as shifting-focus closeups, zoom-ins and "groovy" atmosphere shots, but this can be forgiven in the light of the exuberance of the young stars. And behold: Benson is given screen parents who get along with the boy and actually understand him. The first of a handful of Benson/O'Connor teamings, Jeremy was shot on location in New York City. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
