..Pretty in Pink...

Spoiler:

..an enjoyable second watch..(thank you for the choice, Ruby..:love:..Molly Ringwold was such an endearing 80's actress and portrayed teenage angst so well...I can understand Jon's 'stalker-ish' feelings about Duckie but I think that it was important to the story to portray him that way to show the reverse type snobbery as well../that he resented Blane so much for winning Andie's heart, the 'richie' who had everything, why should he have Andie as well but obviously realising in the end that Blane was a nice guy and indeed worthy of Andie's love and he was what would make her happy...as she said to her dad, if she judged the richies for having money, then she would be doing what they were doing in their judgement of those who didn't have...

..I loved Annie Potts as Iona and Harry Dean Stanton as Andie's dad..:love:..a great cast, a cute movie, an excellent soundtrack and a very nostalgic 7/10...:love:..

..I've added North by Northwest as Marsh suggested ..and also To Kill a Mockingbird and Blade Runner...

Spoiler:

After reading others reviews i wanted to add that i also loved Iona and her wacky style, especially her spikey punk hairdo, and wish Andie's friend had been in the film more as she seemed a great character, i thought her relationship with her dad was something special, i don't know how i feel about her ending up with Blaine, i'm glad she didn't end up with Ducky as it was obvious she had no romantic feelings towards him, and if she'd have ended up with him then it would be her sticking to 'her own kind' which i hate the thought of that, but then ending up with Blaine after he'd judged her not good enough for him also sat uncomfortably with me, even though he was reacting to his so called friends advice/ultimatum. He realised his friend was just being a twat because he'd wanted her and she'd rejected him, so he actually came to his senses and followed his heart, as she followed her heart and in the end it was great to see Ducky letting her go, meaning he truly loved her as all he wanted for her was her happiness:)


And also can't wait for the next movie:love:

Hello Ammi. Long time no see. :love:

Jamie89 08-05-2016 02:42 PM
I didn't have to chance to watch it so I'll review it when I get back from my hols, if you want to pick a new movie while I'm away that's fine :D

Braden 08-05-2016 02:49 PM
I'm really loving this club tbh :love:

I really like watching films but I'm so indecisive when it comes to choosing what I want to watch. Like, I've wanted to watch Pretty in Pink for a while because it was on Netflix, but always want to wait for the right moment if that makes sense? :p

It's kinda nice rt? I probably would never have watch Usual Suspects either... And getting everyones opinions is lovely to. Also just doing something different with a new group of people on here and getting to know them better...

I didn't know Ruby and I had daughters the same age :love:

Braden 08-05-2016 03:42 PM
Yeah, I forgot to add that I'd always wanted to watch The Usual Suspects too. It is really lovely, I feel that this a really nice and social part of the forum. I hope it continues for a long while.

DrunkerThanMoses 08-05-2016 04:00 PM
Well its lasted longer then the other ones, the over movie clubs stopped after like 2 films lol

2001 was a great year:laugh:

I love getting to know you all better too, and it's great to know there are other mums on the forum with teens so that we can share our angst:laugh:

I love the fact that this forum has a great age variation, as it adds to my experience by looking at differing view points and opinions.

I would never have watched Usual Suspects either, so it's great to be part of a club where we can all choose a film, watch it and report back:hee:

Can I recommend the film The Fly (1986)? Its a horror but it is also known for its special make up effects

It's one of my favourite parts of the forum right now :clap1:

And yes to The Fly being added to the list. I've seen it a few times so I'll have a lot of fun watching it again and reviewing it and seeing what everyone else thinks

Yes!!! I remember having to watch this in a social sciences course at university :laugh:

It's an excellent film for many reasons, not only for the nature vs nurture and debate over DNA manipulation, but at the time it was quite cutting edge.
I am in

Niamh. 09-05-2016 09:24 AM
Was away for the weekend so didn't get a chance to watch it yet, will try to get it watched during the week :)

And I think you are being rather hard on the Duckster... He was a teenager in love, sure with very little selfawareness, but how many teens do have it?? He was Andies lifelong friend, she didn't just suffer him, she did love having his friendship, just not an attraction

I mean I am team Duckie all the way... Especially since his hair at the grad was so on point, and Blain's looked like some weird helmet or something

I rewatched last night but didn't want to give my review until others had a chance... But a solid 8.5/10 for me.
I get where you coming from, but I still did not like the character :joker: That ending would have been cliche and terrible in my view.

..it's also lovely to see everyone enjoying this so much/watching the movies and discussing them...is The Fly your choice for the next one, Jon..?../is that what we're watching...

rubymoo 11-05-2016 06:04 AM
I would like Jons choice of The Shining, just because i've only seen bits of it (and i have it on my movie package) :whistle: plus never seen the whole film!

Otherwise if it is The Fly you'll have to let me know a safe site where i can watch it for free :hee:

Niamh. 11-05-2016 09:17 AM
Oh I love the fly
