Fast Times at Ridgemont High
It was alright! Not as funny or memorable as most 80's films but probably the most realistic? I'm not sure. It definitely had the drama that comes with American High School. It's cool to see 80's culture so prevalent before it became nostalgia bait for Gen X. Made me laugh a few times but nothing to honestly ride home about If you know of this film - it's probably because of the stoner humor or that Phoebe Cates scene

a few scenes made me uncomfortable and sean penn marrying madonna is proof anything is possible but overall i kinda liked it.

COMEDYx52(024) (https://letterboxd.com/allbeef/list/comedyx52024/) #47 of 52 | Watch a comedy film directed by a woman (https://letterboxd.com/michaelhaneke/list/films-directed-by-women/genre/comedy/). Surprised to find that the dumb stoner surfer boy is my favorite character. And of course Phoebe Cates too.

Easily tied with Heathers, The Boys Next Door and Better Off Dead as one of the most quintessential teen movies of the 80s. Beneath the backdrop of an 80s raunchy sex comedy lies a rather realistic portrayal of the teen experience and was well ahead of its time, coincidentally a couple years before the sentimentality of John Hughesβ teen cinema kicked in and took over.
