Overview

Andie is an outcast, hanging out either with her older boss, who owns the record store where she works, or her quirky high school classmate Duckie, who has a crush on her. When one of the rich and popular kids at school, Blane, asks Andie out, it seems too good to be true. As Andie starts falling for Blane, she begins to realize that dating someone from a different social sphere is not easy.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A tender exploration of first love complicated by social hierarchy, wrapped in 1980s charm and powered by the ache of wanting to belong. It's earnest and funny in equal measure, with genuine stakes about who you are versus where you fit.
