Movie You're Watching Tonight

I have never seen this movie though I know it has cult worship here.

It’s very ‘80s, very Breakfast Club, but I’d hardly call it a ‘cult film’, especially here of all places. I wanted to watch something sort of upward-looking, and this definitely fit the bill. I really miss such films, no one can make them anymore, and even back in the day they were few and far between. It’s so perfectly well-rounded and positive, and the teenage characters are sort of aspirational, if that’s the word.

My mum and I watched The Leftovers together a while back (I’d seen the show before, she hadn’t), and she absolutely hated the teenagers there. Couldn’t watch the teenager-led scenes. I reminded her that she loves Twin Peaks, and that features teenagers just as heavily. She said she dislikes those scenes, too, but the teenagers in the ‘80s/‘90s shows/films were far more mature and likeable. This is absolutely what comes to mind after watching Ferris Bueller… — everyone behaves in really emotionally mature ways, yes, I did just say that. The dialogue has emotional depth.

I remember you’re not interested in TP, but it just came to mind.

I wasn’t referencing the UK as I don’t profess to know what is “cultish” there.

Didn’t get to it when it was in cinemas.

Tonight I'm going to try to watch Attack the Gas Station!. It'll be easier to find time tonight than it was last night, although I am unsure if the kiddos have school tomorrow or not vis snow. My guess is not as they haven't had school all week and the snow is still coming down. We'll see.

Update; they're sans school though I should be able to find time for the film. It's not a long film either which works.

I hate insomnia. Oh yeah. Last year I had four cases of it, and each time it lasted three months.

I'm planning to re-watch Trash (2014). Remember liking it and wanna see how it held up.

Been meaning to see this for ages. I loved it, such a classic nineties/noughties vibe and of course a great lake house. Pretty great stuff.

⬆️ Never heard of this one. Enjoy!

Fully recommend this one!

When does one ever get to see those two together.

Only Heartburn and Ironweed, so far. Both kinda disappointing.

But enjoy!

Yeah, I agree this is very meh. I don’t really get Nora Ephron, with the exception of Sleepless in Seattle. But hey, I do try to watch everything, and even this has its moments.

Definitely a waste of Meryl, though.

So good.

Yeah it's a favorite of my daughter. Mine is Spirited Away.
