"Molly Ringwald Would Never Be Cast Today"– And That's Pretty Sad. Hadley Freeman Talks Her Book on 80s Movies
Castle of Horror Interview Segment host Jason Henderson talks to Hadley Freeman, author of the awesome new nonfiction book Life Moves Pretty Fast: The Lessons We Learned from Eighties Movies. We talk about Pretty in Pink, Dirty Dancing, St. Elmo's Fire, and why ideas about body image, class and sex have changed so much since the 80s.
For instance, regarding St. Elmo's Fire: "Ally Sheedy is dressed like a 50-year-old Republican housewife, except she's twenty-two. And all the hottest guys want to sleep with her…. these girls are dressing [this way] because that's what they want to wear."
