About this movie

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 (The Breakfast Club, Ferris Bueller's Day Off). She's a high school girl from the wrong side of town. He's the wealthy heart-throb 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.

Ratings and reviews

My friend told me it might be a little bit of a chick flick but it's still a great movie. So I thought hey why not, went home searched it and now I am so happy. This movie gave me a lot of confidence for the future too!

Characters are very well chosen but the only reason I've seen it so many times is Duckie, I want one! So well cast!

This movie has always been one of my favorites. Its a very entertaining romantic comedy drama about a poor girl who designs her own clothes, and a rich guy who likes her but his friends don't approve. This is definitely a great movie. 9/10
