influential films into a cultural and cinematic context--and
provides compelling behind-the-scenes stories about the people who
made them."--Leonard Maltin

readable is the juicy, behind-the-scenes stuff."-- Mike
Householder, Associated Press

together a narrative that, in the end, gives fans a clear, sound
understanding of what commercial and cultural forces produced these
films -- "Sixteen Candles," "The Breakfast Club," "Ferris Bueller's
Day Off," "Say Anything" and more -- and why they still mean a
great deal to so many." -- Chicago Sun-Times
"I've become addicted to Susannah Gora's new book, "You Couldn't

the Brat Pack films." --Steve Spears, St. Petersburg Times
