Subject: Am I the only one that has seen this movie???
Written By: BillieJeanDavy on 09/11/02 at 01:18 a.m.
I want to say between 1985 and 1989 I saw this movie on like Disney. It opens with this preteen in a leather jacket and sunglasses playing a guitar onstage. This appears to be a cute adolesant boy, but turns out to be a girl. Later she enters some talent contest as a boy, "her cousin from out of town," and as a girl, but is found out when her dress slips out from underneath her jacket.
I know I'm not making this up, but everyone I tell about it think's I'm crazy, and I can't find it on IMDB anywhere, either.

I don't know what movie that is, but it sounds like one of those goofy Disney Sunday movies they used to always have back in the '80s.

was it "Just One of the Guys"? It was in mid-80s and involved a teen girl that dressed up like a guy to be more accepted at school.

It's not Just One of the Guys, Something Special, or any of those. I've tried getting some sort of list of Disney's tv movie's but I can't seem to find one. Does anyone know where one may be??

I found this movie description on Internet Movie Database:
Double Switch (1987)
Teeny bopper rock star Bart Holton is pushed around by his manager for maximum profit and longs for a normal life. Through a look-alike contest he meets Matt, a student who looks exactly like him and can imitate his dancing style perfectly. Bart proposes to switch roles for a week. At first Matt enjoys being chased by hysterical groupies and Bart enjoys hitting on the highschool girls, but of course both learn quickly that the other's life is quite different from what they'd expected.
