Plot Summary
80s teen sensations Molly Ringwald (Sixteen Candles, The Breakfast Club ) and Andrew McCarthy (St. Elmo's Fire ) drew raves for their starring performances in this hit love story by John Hughes (Ferris Bueller's Day Off ). She's a high school girl from the wrong side of town. He's the wealthy heartthrob who asks her to the prom. But as fast as their romance builds, it's threatened by the painful reality of peer pressure. A bittersweet story with an upbeat ending and a phenomenal rock score, Pretty In Pink also stars Harry Dean Stanton, Jon Cryer, James Spader and Annie Potts.

Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: Miss Ringwald's pouty naturalness remains her biggest asset, and her performance is once again appealing.
Fresh: First-Timer Howard Deutch is a nice surprise too. His precise, unexploitative direction is sympathetic to the awkward pauses in teen talk, to the mopery of first love, to the suicidal bravado of words spoken in heat.
Fresh: Pretty in Pink is a rather intelligent (if not terribly original) look at adolescent insecurities.
Rotten: Deutch has no discernible style; the scenes march ahead with only one development per scene, much like the worst in American television.
