Review of Sixteen Candles (1984) by Jon L — 27 Jun 2010
I take back what I said in my review of "Superbad" - THIS is the greatest high school movie of all time. In addition to that, this is something of an official movie for me and my immediate family; for the longest time, we used to dig it out every Christmas, and I can still recite the entire thing pretty much verbatim.
The movie that introduced the world to Anthony Michael Hall and Molly Ringwald, thus launching the '80s "realistic" teen movie craze and the career of John Hughes - and also the origin of the phrase "OH SEXY GIRLFRIEEEEEEENNNNNDDDDD!!!!!!".
