Junior Prom teaches proper etiquette for all aspects of going to the junior prom by showing the adventures of two different boys, Jerry and Frank, who go out on a double date together to the prom. Jerry is the perfect 1940â??s example of a well-mannered gentleman, while Frank exhibits many characteristics of incorrect prom behavior. Jerry guides Frank through these â??toughâ?� choices as the narrator makes comments like â??Allow the ladies to be more colorful.â?� All the rigid social ceremonies and strict behavior is covered, with a right and wrong way to handle every situation. Junior Prom is a wonderful examination of the history of the prom, as well as social structures and conformity in mid 20th century America.
