A poignant, painful reminder of being a 15 year old girl
I give this film a ten because it was very entertaining and thought provoking. For years I have been trying to remember the name of it so I could order the video to watch again. I saw it 20 years ago. I don’t remember all the details but I remember how much it touched me.It was quite frightening, even at the age of 23. I never forgot the strength of Laura Dern’s performance. It was incredible, defining. I have followed her career ever since. Treat Williams was also excellent. I don’t want to risk a spoiler so I will just say he was a very convincing character.
I also believe it would be as meaningful today as it was in 1985. The relevance of this film is timeless.
