Some Kind of Wonderful
Friday Feb 3 (7:30pm)
$12
Actress Mary Stuart Masterson in person for post-screening Q&A, moderated by Salon’s Mary Elizabeth Williams.
From the pen of John Hughes comes this gender-flipped emo redux of his own valentine classic Pretty in Pink, released less than a year after the original, and the final crowning chapter of his teen angst oeuvre. Eric Stoltz stands in for Molly Ringwald as the sensitive redhead loner crushing hard for a preppy queen bee, unaware that his BFF, tomboy drummer Mary Stuart Masterson, has been hiding a secret unrequited crush of her own. If Pretty in Pink is the big pop dance number, Some Kind of Wonderful is the stripped down cover of the same song in a minor key, a surprisingly nuanced riff on Hughes’s weakness for anguished lovesick high schoolers.
