Measure of a Man (1962)
Overview
Mike Miller is a high school student. His mother is wondering more and more about whether he has yet at that stage of acting on feelings associated with puberty, such as having kissed a girl. She is somewhat worried however when Mike says that he is going to hang out this evening with Hal and Blaine, who she has only heard by reputation are a bit on the wild side. While she doesn't forbid Mike from hanging out with them, she still can't help but be worried. On the flip side, Mike, a proverbial good boy, may buckle under peer pressure to do things that he may not want to do, such as drag racing, drinking and hanging out with "wild" girls. What Mike does not know is that some of his friends and friends of friends who he will hang out with this evening will have exactly those same feelings as him, they too who may succumb to peer pressure.
