Valley Girl movie

This movie was released in 1983. It was the wrong side of the tracks kind of movie. It was about a Valley Girl Julie played by actress Deborah Foreman that had a boyfriend that took her for granted. She met Randy who was played by actor Nicolas Cage who was raised in Hollywood. No Valley Girl would be seen dead with someone from Hollywood. Julie’s parents were old hippies that had turned into yuppies. Julie’s father played by Frederick Forest reminded me of Sonny Bono because of his mustache and the 60’s clothes he wore. Julie and Randy fell in love but peer pressure started to get to Julie and she broke it off but it was not the end for them things go crazy at the high school prom.

I loved this movie mostly because it was about an outcast like Randy but in real life, most outcasts don’t look like Nicolas Cage. The soundtrack was not great but did have one bright spot Modern English’s Melt With You. Nicolas Cage became a huge star but Deborah Foreman had a couple more movies like April Fools Day and then fell off the map. She was a good actress I do not understand why she did not have more success?
