Tonight's second feature is much lighter fare. John Cusack stars in this surreal 80s teen comedy. Co-starring David Ogden Stiers, Kim Darby, and Johnny, a sociopathic paperboy who wants his TWO DOLLARS.

I liked the part where the one guy who wears the Foreigner T-shirt bumps into the other guy at the grocery store and he gets all worked up and ends up throwing bottles of tomato sauce (Ragu?) over into the next aisle and the old lady with the large handbag gets thumped in the head with one of them.
Hijinks ensue.

Man I’m old. Saw it in a theater when it was released. Had a big crush on Diane Franklin.

One of my favourite movies of all time. Now I’m going to have to watch it again. Great Christmas scenes, btw.

Most memorable line, “I want my two dollars.” Former paper boys will understand the line.

“Three O’clock High” is a close second!

I was all bummed out by the Boner, er, Imean Boener treachery, and you pulled me from the brink. I have gotten to really appreciate 80s movies.

“Had a big crush on Diane Franklin.”
You and me both. What a woman!
I confess also to having some rather strong feelings for that sweet, sweet Camaro Cusack drives in the movie. :-)
