I just watched a movie called 'Easy A'. While I don't recommend the movie, she referenced getting back some chivalry - like the 80's movies. Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Weird Science, Breakfast Club. She wants John Hughes to script and direct her life - like a an 80's movie,
John Cusack standing under her window with a boom box, riding off on a lawn mower with Patrick Dempsey, Judd Nelson to thrust his fist into the air because he got the leading lady. She wants the 80's movie with an awesome musical number, with no purpose, just like Ferris Bueller
It started me thinking, was it all too much to ask?
John Hughes is no longer with us - that brilliant life was cut short in 2009. That is sad because the next generation of kids after me, won't have the magic and the brilliance that we had growing up. That you really can get a happy ending ... my life to be just like Molly Ringwald, in Pretty in Pink.
