weren't we all him ... ?
Come on critics, lighten up. This movie is pure fun. I love it as much in my 40's as I did in my 20's. It may not be hip enough for later generations, but if you came of age in the 80's - it should remind you of yourself, and make you smile.Yes, Ione is stunningly beautiful, and the direction is awesomely tailored to capitalize on that fact. Highly stylish.There is a catchy soundtrack; and, dare I admit it, I could relate to Charles Hiway far too many times. The Rachel Papers captures perfectly the chase, the rapture, and the disappointments of that first killer crush. I love this movie! ... enough to waste my precious time to write a review of it. :)
