Alternate versions
When it played the Road Show circuits, the movie contained an announcement for an intermission. This would be followed by a live appearance by "Mr. Curtis Hayes", a "hygiene expert" (played by various actors) who would pitch a book on sexual reproduction. The Something Weird Video DVD release of Street Corner contains new footage featuring David F. Friedman playing the role of Mr. Curtis Hayes inserted into the film after the intermission announcement.

Like watching an army training film for women

Street Corner is about a young and most naive teen who goes all the way with her boyfriend on prom night. Then after Don Brodie goes off to college Marcia Mae Jones misses a period and then Brodie is killed in a car crash. What's a girl to do who hasn't had a heart to heart with mom about the facts of life?

This low budget indie is like watching an army training film for the WACS. It could be the Reefer Madness of sex ed. Kindly, but stern Joseph Crehan the family doctor narrates Marcia Mae's story. Mind you this is all before the pill, before abortions were made legal and the word 'condom' is not mentioned.

Gretl Dupont plays this evil foreign looking and sounding woman who is your back alley abortionist of the day. She's the reason why Planned Parenthood came into existence.

Let us thank the Creator/Deity that ludicrous films like this are now seen for what they are.
