Fairfax’s The Vine<\/em> gotta list of ‘Top Ten 80s Teen Films’<\/a> (Posted in ENTERTAINMENT by arielamazing on Oct 10, 12:04PM). It isn’t terribly clear, but the article appears to have been written by Sebastian Cordoba, “a lawyer and writer who moved from Argentina to the United States to pursue a career in filmmaking”, subsequently directing and producing the doco Through Thick and Thin<\/a><\/em>. Anyway, the top ten are all Hollywood, written and\/or produced and\/or directed by John Hughes, with four exceptions: Adventures in Babysitting<\/em>, Fast Times at Ridgemont High<\/em> (written by Cameron Crowe), Footloose<\/em> and Say Anything…<\/em> (written and directed by Cameron Crowe)…<\/p>\n

Ambition is a poor excuse for not having sense enough to be lazy. Happiness is the longing for repetition. No matter how much we scorn it, kitsch is an integral part of the human condition. People are going deaf because music is played louder and louder, but because they’re going deaf, it has to be played louder still. Without the meditative background that is criticism, works become isolated gestures, historical accidents, soon forgotten. The struggle of man against power is the struggle of memory against forgetting.<\/p>\n

“The actual head slamming, the rapid moving, I see as an experience that would produce an altered sense of consciousness. There are some religious ceremonies that produce the same effect with movements that are pretty much the same.”<\/p>\n
