And this just adds one m...Nelson or his character?<br /><br />And this just adds one more to the ever-growing list of problems with John Hughes. Everyone knows his films are extremely white, with at most one token minority. In at least one movie, that token minority was Long Duck Dong. His girls are sexually assaulted all the time, from Judd Nelson's character sneaking a peek and it's implied he touched Molly Ringwald's character's panties to that scene in Pretty in Pink where Anthony Michael Hall's character trades panties for sexy times with the Dreamboat's girlfriend. We also get National Lampoon's Vacation and the "incest lite" scene where Anthony Michael Hall's character's cousin shows him his porn collection and the conversation segues to almost masturbation instruction before the family leaves.<br /><br />And Ally Sheedy's character slept with her psychiatrist, but it was consensual because she paid him. But she's also a compulsive liar.<br /><br />Yeah, John Hughes in retrospect is pretty gross. But I still wish my school looked like theirs. Seriously, they have mezzanines.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-814549419838495324.post-3411808943730815642020-09-10T23:43:34.784-04:002020-09-10T23:43:34.784-04:00Kathy Griffin's memoir OFFICIAL BOOK CLUB SELE...Kathy Griffin's memoir OFFICIAL BOOK CLUB SELECTION features a chapter dedicated to the show and Strickland's suicide.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
