    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      This is Molly Ringwald's favorite among her own films. Fact check: Actually she said they "were all like {her} babies (the movies); it would be impossible to chose one over the other. If I had to chose one as the best it would be Breakfast Club because the script was the strongest". She has said at other points that she "enjoyed Pretty in Pink the most" because it was fun acting out a prom experience (which she never got in high school).
    • Goofs
      The movie is set in Illinois. After Andie's kiss with Blain, Duckie rides his bike around Andie's house and towards Trax record store; all the cars have Blue California license plates.
    • Quotes

      Blane: You couldn't buy her, though, that's what's killing you, isn't it? Stef? That's it, Stef. She thinks you're shit. And deep down, you know she's right.

    Gotta love the 80's
    An 80's movie. You have to love them. This is one of the few that do have a slight twist on the ending though. I like this film for many reasons. Molly Ringwald is the queen of the teen movies in the 80's. She is a must watch in all of these classic films. I also loved the fact that you got to see some later on famous stars appear in this film like Kristy Swanson and Gina Gershon. Neither really had any lines but they were in it. Make sure to see this movie if you get a chance. Romance or not, it is a good film.
