Schoolhouse Parking Garage Rooftop says…

Written and directed by '80s teen-movie maestro John Hughes, Sixteen Candles stars Molly Ringwald as Sam Baker, a high-school sophomore celebrating her 16th birthday while her frenzied family frets over her older sister's impending wedding. Fighting off computer geeks and a drunken foreign-exchange student, Sam struggles to secure the attention of her dashing crush, Jake Ryan — who is already intrigued by the redheaded ingénue, unbeknown to her. Tonight, the film is screened atop the Schoolhouse Garage in Old Town Pasadena, so bust out those blankets and tease out that hair for a free outdoor presentation of one of the Reagan era's definitive teen movies.
