"It's awesome! A funny, sexy, appealing movie." - Chicago Sun-Times. Swept on the heels of the "Valley Girl" phenomenon, the film Valley Girl was release to record-breaking audiences in the summer of 1983. But those who were expecting a simple satire about the Valley Girl fad got much more than they asked for: Valley Girl was an instant summer smash hit, hailed as "a joyous romp," "peppy and winningly comic," "sweet and honest" and "one of the most appealing romantic comedies in a long time." The outstanding musical score was also the recipient of rave reviews. Valley Girl features the top groups Men At Work, The Clash, Josie Cotton, Culture Club and many others. The delightful story focuses on the Romeo and Juliet-like love between Julie (Deborah Foreman), a true "Valley Girl" from California's wealthy San Fernando Valley, and Randy (Moonstruck's Nicholas Cage), a fast-moving teen from the Hollywood Hills. From the time they meet until the tale's tender conclusion, it's a war of the "cliques," with Julie's proper Valley friends trying to reunite her with her old flame and Randy and his pals crashing the Valley parties. To add to the irony, Colleen Camp (Screwball Academy) and Frederic Forrest (Apocalypse Now) play Julie's free-spirited Sixties parents, terribly confused about the ultra-conservative daughter they've raised.

"Travolta is magic as an angel with a devilish side." - Roger Ebert, "Siskel & Ebert." Would-be ghost. UFO voyagers. A chicken that pecks out Moonlight Sonata on the piano - blindfolded! They're the kind of stories that keep the National Mirror in the shopping carts. And they're the kind of stories that make the tabloid's reporters think they've heard and seen it all. But that's before they meet Michael. He may be a grubby party animal who knows his way around a dance floor, but Michael is very much an angel. And with John Travolta in the title role, Michael is very much a divine romantic comedy, directed by Nora Ephron (Sleepless In Seattle). William Hurt, Andie MacDowell and Robert Pastorelli are writers sent by boss Bob Hoskins to get an exclusive on the heavenly visitor. The journalists want a page-one scoop.

"The combination of both elegant and lowdown humor - and this miraculous cast - is irresistible." - Sheila Benson, Los Angeles Times. Arthur Bach is very rich - and very drunk most of the time, with a bar bill that reads like the national debt. He also stands to lose his $750 million inheritance if he doesn't marry the most boring blonde on Long Island within a month. Unfortunately, Arthur's just discovered the girl of his dreams. And in his case, love's not only blind but blind drunk. Dudley Moore stars in Arthur, the bubbly box-office hit that solidified his standing as one of the most gifted comedians ever. Liza Minnelli is Linda Marolla, the actress/waitress who catches our hero's eye and heart. And in his Academy Award-winning performance as acerbic manservant Hobson, Sir John Gielgud steals the show. When Arthur intones his intention to bathe, Hobson dryly replies, "I'll alert the media." No alerts are necessary. Arthur, which picked up a second Oscar for its delightful title tune, has already become a contemporary comedy classic.

Steve Martin is a world famous surgeon. He invented screw top, zip-lock brain surgery. Trust him! Anyone who doesn't think Steve Martin is one of the funniest fellows on the planet ought to have his head examined. As The Man With Two Brains, madman Martin is just the guy to do it. He plays Dr. Michael Hfuhruhurr, world-famous originator of zip-lock, screw-top brain surgery. But the good doctor has another obsession: the memory of his beloved, deceased wife. She flies out of his mind, however, when the slinky siren Dolores Benedict flees in front of his car - and before he's finished the operation to save Dolores' life, he's totally smitten. Unfortunately, the horny cranium cutter weds her before learning the awful truth: Dolores' gorgeousness hides a calculating heart of stone. In a sublimely comic reversal of her deadly femme fatale in Body Heat and predating her tantalizing hitwoman of Prizzi's Honor, Kathleen Turner makes Dolores a teasing temptress who delights in keeping her man in a state of constant arousal - and frustration.
