Some Kind of Wonderful
Things seem to be going at a very different juncture for that girl called Nelson, a high school student. Nelson Nelson to take Amanda Jones's date that is inaccessible. Perhaps it will be very difficult, as Amanda, a former rich city section, is unable at that moment to abandon her and perhaps there will be a new plan to return to Keith.

The cynical view of humanity demonstrated within makes it a fascinating outlier in the writer/producer's canon and the '80s teen film generally.

The best of all 80s teen movies.

Typical '80s teen movie is still relevant today.

Lighter and less filling than usual.

This time it ends with the underdogs together. Oddly enough, it's this conclusion that feels phony, seeing as Stoltz has spent the last 80 minutes arranging his dream date with Lea.

A simple, lovely and thoughtful teenage story that occasionally shines due to fine characterizations and lucid dialog.
