Yeah, Some Kind of Wonderful borrowed from Pretty in Pink. It also borrowed from Ferris Bueller's Day Off.

It also had the same writer and same director!!

It also had Lea Thompson of BTTF.

And 'the girl' is Mary Stuart Masterson, who is an angel you cretin. ;)

John Hughes had a crew of actors, and a storytelling style. Some Kind of Wonderful wasn't the apex of his craft, but he made a ton of beloved movies.

Stoltz was more pretty than talented [though he ironically got his big break under makeup as Rocky Dennis in Mask], and his 'brooding teen' was a bad fit for BTTF's McFly, who needed Fox's manic incredulous energy to match the madcap adventurous narrative.

He was awesome in Pulp Fiction.

He's also a good dude, as he was a neighbor of mine for years.

Yep, you are right of course.
I know these things, sure. But I didn't remember specifics like name of movie etc.. but/so I'm not going to Google everything I type, like a time consuming research paper.

Thanks. Better than I remembered it.
