Thumbs up
Boy what a wonderful movie!!!!!

Today i finally saw the whole movie AND IN ANALOGUE!! (No digital compromise) and it looked and sounded as good as it did in the 80s when it first came out!!

I had heard of this movie and have wanted to see it IN ANALOG but couldnt find a VHS copy of it..... Well a couple weeks ago I FOUND ONE!!!


A beautiful movie of how kids who didnt know each other came of age during the day and ended up being friends


One thing i didnt like was the version of DONT YOU FORGET ABOUT ME by SIMPLE MINDS they have on it... A piece of crap and not as good as the ORIGINAL VERSION of that song! (For a movie as good as this im surprised they put that garbage on it)


Definetly a 5 star movie and a sad reminder of how stuff has gone WAY DOWN the tubes since then

Who sang the ORIGINAL VERSION? I am unaware of a previous release of the tune.
Good movie BTW!

Did you find a widescreen VHS version, or a chopped-up "full screen" one? THAT is a compromise I could never stand anymore.
