New York City, 1978. Opening weekend night at the Ziegfeld Theatre. Teen stars weren’t on the red carpet — they were moving through the lobby, shoulder to shoulder with everyone else. 

 In a handheld flow, this short captures Scott Baio, Kristy McNichol, Leif Garrett, Jodie Foster, Brooke Shields, Linda Blair, Valerie Bertinelli, Tatum O’Neal, Robby Benson at the moment when fame felt close, familiar, and unfinished.
