Release Year: 1985
Starring: C. Thomas Howell, Lori Loughlin, Kelly Preston, Dee Wallace, Casey Siemaszko, Fred Ward and Corey Haim
On the last day of school before Summer, Michael Ryan (C. Thomas Howell) receives a love letter in his locker from a secret admirer. His best friend, Roger (Casey Siemaszko), convinces him that the letter is from class beauty Deborah Ann Fimple (Kelly Preston).
Michael writes Deborah Ann an anonymous love letter in return, and asks his female best friend, Toni (Lori Loughlin) to give it to her. Toni rewrites the letter, which is found by different people, most notably some idiot ‘80s movies parents and all manner of hilarious misunderstandings and sitcom hi-jinks and wackiness ensues.
This is the type of film where the protagonist’s gorgeous, long-suffering best friend (Toni) is in love with him, but he is totally oblivious until the romcom race to the airport, um, I mean race to the docks (Toni is leaving for a study abroad program).
An excellent supporting cast, great jokes, unique situations, and a young Corey Haim set this teen romantic comedy apart from the pack.
The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and his ears are open to their cry. - Psalms 34:15
