Brat Pack Movies
You can't win. You know that, don't you? It doesn't matter if you whip us, you'll still be where you were before, at the bottom. And we'll still be the lucky ones at the top with all the breaks. It doesn't matter. Greasers will still be Greasers and Socs will still be Socs. It doesn't matter.

Jules, y'know, honey... this isn't real. You know what it is? It's St. Elmo's Fire. Electric flashes of light that appear in dark skies out of nowhere. Sailors would guide entire journeys by it, but the joke was on them... there was no fire. There wasn't even a St. Elmo. They made it up. They made it up because they thought they needed it to keep them going when times got tough, just like you're making up all of this. We're all going through this. It's our time at the edge.

Mr. Hand: [Mr. Hand goes to blackboard and writes the words 'I Don't Know', then underlines them] [reciting] Mr. Hand: I like that. 'I Don't Know.' That's nice. [imitating] Mr. Hand: 'Mr. Hand, will I pass this class?' Gee, Mr. Spicoli, I don't know! You know what I'm going to do? I'm going to leave your words right up here for all my classes to enjoy, giving you full credit of course, Mr. Spicoli.

Dear Governor Axtell.
I've heard that you will give 200 dollars for my head. Perhaps we should meet and talk. I am at the Juarez village at the border. Send 3 men, and instruct them not to shoot, as I am unarmed. In short, Sir; I surrender. Your obedient servant William H. Bonney. PS: I changed my mind. Kiss my ass. 1987 Starring: Emilio Estevez Charlie Sheen Kiefer Sutherland Lou Diamond Phillips Elfflame's rating:

1} Film : Racing With the Moon (1984), featuring Sean Penn, Nick Cage, and Elizabeth McGovern... she in 80s worked with Bacon, Mickey Rourke, Hutton, Dillon, and Forest Whitaker...
2} Actor: Casey Siemaszko! - The forgotten Packer... worked on *three* of the Brat films above, including Bad Boys (major role), Class and Young Guns. Plus he worked with Thompson on the Back to Future movies, with Kieffer in Stand By Me, with Masterson and Rumble Fish's Larry Fishburne in Coppola's Gardens of Stone, with Broderick in Biloxi Blues, etc etc. Casey belongs here more than Alan Ruck, Cryer, Broderick, or even Stoltz.
3} Forest Whitaker? - Worked in Fast Times, plus in Platoon, Color of Money with Cruise, Johnny Handsome with M. Rourke. Others maybe in this "near miss" category: Aidan Quinn, D.B. Sweeney (with Cusack & Sheen in Eight Men Out), Craig Sheffer, Virginia Madsen, Johnny Depp (Platoon, Benny & Joon), Matthew Modine (w/ Cage in Birdy, w/ several others in 1990 Memphis Belle).
