Title Tracy Gives TV Past a Hard Knock
Author(s)Author Unknown
Publication Date 11-11-1980
Page Number n.p
Comments Not a really helpfull review on a critical level. It is useful however for placing "Hard Knocks" in its contemporary context.
Synopsis This article is concerned fundamentally with the professional development of the film "Hard Knocks" lead actress - Tracy Mann (Samantha). By denouncing her commercial television background, the author describes her perfomance in the film as 'the survival of true talent.' It details her awards for the role and proceeds to give an overall review of the film itself.

Upon offering a brief synopsis, the article acclaims the film for it's bold realist streak and it's use of unconventional film aesthetics(very fleeting).

Throughout the piece, a very positive perspective of "Hard Knocks" is delivered.
