Summary: Think everyone over 17 has forgotten what it's like to be 16? John Hughes hasn't. Now Hughes delivers another funny, savvy, crowd-pleasing look at adolescence in this story about high school misfit Keith (Stoltz), who falls so head-over-heels for the senior class siren Amanda Jones (Thompson) that he's blind to the charms of his beautiful and devoted best pal Watts (Masterson). (Paramount)

Must've played better in the eighties but it's surprisingly durable.

Top badass moment? Duncan and his gang gate-crashing Hardy’s party. (What any annoying little prick he was.) A rare, positive example of skinhead activism within in multi-cultural environment in a Hollywood movie. That’s badass. 1 cat and 0 decapitations. A quick run off scene (with dialogue) is all we get, cat-wise. Shame.

I still enjoy this movie. This was the movie that saved Eric Stoltz's career after he was fired from Back To The Future. A great 80's teen drama with great casting and some good music throughout.

"Pretty In Pink" remade, with the gender roles swapped and the ending John Hughes originally wanted. I actually like it more than the more famous original. It has a higher ratio of drama to comedy than most Hughes movies, but Elias Koteas is hilarious nonetheless. And Lea Thompson... as always, too hot for words.

Eric Stoltz is very creepy in this and not at all romantic. Plus he's a bit of an asshole.
