Remember when Nicholas Cage was known as Nicolas Coppola? Remember when the mall was THE place to hang out? Remember when half the girls in your high school class were trying to look like Pat Benatar? Remember when Sean Penn was funny?? :o Well if you don’t remember any of those things, here is an iconic tie capsule movie to remind of those and many other things from forty years ago. Yes this high school comedy came out forty years ago and it was not only the directorial debut for Amy Heckerling who would go on to direct Clueless but it was also the screenwriting debut of Cameron Crowe who would go on to write and direct Jerry Maguire. And it has a STACKED cast of future top talent including Penn, Cage, Forest Whitaker, Jennifer Jason Leigh, and Judge Reinhold among several others. It’s time to go back to Ridgemont and find out if playing Led Zeppelin IV on the first date REALLY works….
