Some Kind of Wonderful (1987 · VHS · Paramount · Buy 2 Get 1 Free)
A John Hughes‑penned teen romance that flips the Pretty in Pink dynamic: working‑class dreamer Keith pines for the popular girl while his best friend Watts quietly loves him from the sidelines. What starts as a simple date spirals into class clashes, jealous exes, and one of the decade’s most satisfying emotional payoffs. It’s pure late‑’80s Hughes — sharp, sincere, and anchored in characters who feel caught between who they are and who they want to be.
