This book takes us back to that golden age of youth cinema, through Susannah Gora's original and revealing interviews with scores of key players such as Molly Ringwald, Anthony Michael Hall, Ally Sheedy, Judd Nelson, Matthew Broderick, Andrew McCarthy, Cameron Crowe, Rob Lowe, Joel Schumacher, Jon Cryer, and John Cusack. Gora mines all the material of these movies, from the music to the way the films were made, and shows how they helped shape our vision of romance, friendship, society, and success. This book sets these influential films into a cultural and cinematic context--and provides compelling behing-the-scenes stories about the people who made them. Entertainment journalist Susannah Gora is the author of "You Couldn't Ignore Me If You Tried". Through interviews with the key players from that era, the book, which Vanity Fair has called "definitive," covers the history behind and sociological impact of the great 1980's teen movies, including classic John Hughes youth films such as "The Breakfast Club." Gora has written for outlets including The Washington Post, Variety, Salon, Elle, The Huffington Post, AOL, and Premiere:The Movie Magazine, where Gora was Associate Editor. Over the years, Gora's hundreds of interviewees have included actors such as Meryl Streep, George Clooney, Harrison Ford, Scarlett Johansson, Reese Witherspoon, Hugh Jackman, Anne Hathaway, Denzel Washington, Jane Fonda, Dustin Hoffman, Omar Sharif, Bob Newhart, Matthew McConaughey, Julianne Moore, Matthew Broderick, Robin Williams and Anthony Hopkins; and filmmakers such as Rob Reiner, Steven Soderbergh, James L. Brooks, Kenneth Branagh, M. Night Shyamalan, Joel Schumacher, Jonathan Demme, and Cameron Crowe. Susannah Gora has appeared on networks including NBC, VH1, MTV, CNN, CNBC, SiriusXM and NPR to discuss the entertainment industry. Gora is also the host and writer of "Classics on Film," a DVD series produced by Penguin Books which covers classic novels that have been made into great films. Gora has worked for Brillstein-Grey Entertainment, and has studied filmmaking at NYU's Tisch School of the Arts. Gora is a graduate of The Dalton School and of Duke University, from which she graduated cum laude with High Distinction in English in 1999, and was the recipient of the E. Blake Byrne Scholarship for excellence in creative writing. Derived from a Publishers Weekly article: The phrase was coined by David Blum in the headline "Hollywood's Brat Pack," heralding his cover story for the June 10, 1985, issue of New York magazine with its cover photo of Emilio Estevez, Rob Lowe, and Judd Nelson. The label stuck, Gora notes, and extended to describe other actors: Andrew McCarthy, Demi Moore, Ally Sheedy, Molly Ringwald, and Anthony Michael Hall. A former editor at Premiere , Gora guides the reader through the creation of the teen cinema of the 1980s, described by the American Film Institute as "the cultural phenomenon which helped make us what we are today." To recall the era, she interviewed two dozen actors, plus the directors and producers behind the Brat Pack's memorable movies, including The Breakfast Club , Fast Times at Ridgemont High , Sixteen Candles , Pretty in Pink , St. Elmo's Fire and Ferris Bueller's Day Off . As Gora sees it, "The films changed the way many young people looked at everything from class distinction to friendship, from love and sex to fashion and music." Writer-director John Hughes's ability to capture adolescent angst is highlighted. The 1980s youth films maintain their popularity on TV and DVDs, and Gora gives them near-encyclopedic, comprehensive coverage.
