Brat Pack America: A Love Letter to '80s Teen Movies Paperback - 2016
by Smokler, Kevin
From the rear cover
From the fictional towns of Hill Valley, CA, and Shermer, IL, to the beautiful landscapes of the "Goondocks" in Astoria, OR and the " time of your life" Dirty Dancing resort still alive and well in Lake Lure, NC, '80s teen movies left their mark not just on movie screen and in the hearts of fans, but on the landscape of America itself. Like few other eras in movie history, the '80s teen movies have endured and gotten better with time. In Brat Pack America, Kevin Smokler gives virtual tours of the legendary movies from that time and why the places they happened are a tribute to their permanence, why we love them still.
Including interviews with actors, writers, and directors of the era, and a Trapper Keeper full of interesting facts about your favorite 80s movies, Brat Pack America is a must for any fan of The Breakfast Club and Back to the Future, of Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Pretty in Pink, and Dead Poets Society. Smokler went to Goonies Day in Astoria, OR, took a Lost Boys tour of Santa Cruz, CA and in the present visited retro arcades, movie theaters, and record stores. His exploration of highways and main streets of Brat Pack America remind of why we love the teen movies of the 1980s so much and, three decades later, still do.Details
