Note sull'episodio
We’re kicking off a two-part rewatch of Sixteen Candles, the movie that made Molly Ringwald an icon and taught us that apparently, everyone in your family can forget your birthday.
In Part 1, we walk through the first half of the film: school bus rides, Farmer Ted’s antics, and the start of Jake Ryan’s “dreamboat” status (which… maybe doesn’t hold up quite the way we remembered). It all leads up to the infamous party at Jake’s house.
This was the start of John Hughes’ teen-movie empire, but watching it now? Let’s just say some of it hits different. Join us...
