As a self proclaimed John Hughes movie junky, I have a confession to make.
Last night I finally sat down and watched "Easy A".
"Easy A" had been recommended to me, some time ago, by my son.
At that time I brushed him off saying: "Ya, ya, Harold and Kumar and the Scary Movie's were suposed to be my thing too. I am good with the John Hughes originals thanks."
Boy was I wrong!
I LOVED "Easy A", I truly LOVED this movie.
I loved it for the nostalgia and I loved it because it was fun, not gross and crude like American Pie.
The "tete a tete" banter between characters was clever.
"Easy A" gets an easy A+ from me.
"Whatever happened to chivalry? Does it only exist in 80's movies? I want John Cusack holding a boombox outside my window. I wanna ride off on a lawnmower with Patrick Dempsey. I want Jake from Sixteen Candles waiting outside the church for me. I want Judd Nelson thrusting his fist into the air because he knows he got me. Just once I want my life to be like an 80's movie, preferably one with a really awesome musical number for no apparent reason. But no, no, John Hughes did not direct my life." - Olive Penderghast
