Round and round she goes...Miss Amanda Jones
I'm sitting here watching one of my favorite 80s indulgences on Encore right now -- "Some Kind of Wonderful". Life stops every time I find it on cable.

It's not my favorite John Hughes flick, but it definitely rates right up there. I guess I was just "right age, right time" when I first saw it in the theater, as Todd does not share my sentimental feelings. But I was young (14), had never been kissed, desperately wanted to be... The kiss-lesson scene between Eric Stoltz and Mary Stuart Masterson in the auto garage gets me every time! And it's got quite the 80s soundtrack to back it up. So sue me. I like it. I like it a lot.



Hey boy take a look at me...let me dirty up your mind...



Lick The Tins' rendition of Can't Help Falling In Love gets to me every time too. I love that movie!!

I love that movie! First time I saw it, it was just an accident, like I found the movie going through the channels and it got me interested. Every time I see it, I get the butterflies in my stomach over and over again when they kiss... he he! ;)

First time I saw the movie was actually an accident. I was going through the channels and it got my attention... I love it! Actually you just made me want to go and get it if I find it in DVD. I get the butterflies in my stomach over and over again when they kiss ;)

The site I linked says it's coming out on DVD finally in 2003, Beatriz. :-)

I hate to admit it, but I like the movie too. If you tell anybody I'll deny it.
