We're back with another special edition of the podcast/show, as it's the 40th anniversary month of the John Hughes Film "Sixteen Candles" starring Molly Ringwald and Anthony Michael Hall. And, our duo of T.J. Rives and Jay Betsill are ready to give their insight and rememberances of what made this movie such a hit that has sustained, now for five decades and counting.

"Sixteen Candles" follows the misadventures of Samantha Baker, played by the endearing Ringwald, as she battles the turmoil of turning sixteen amidst her family's chaotic preparations for her sister's wedding. The heart of the story is really Samantha's  "teenage crush" on the dreamy senior, Jake Ryan (Michael Schoeffling), and her journey of self-discovery amidst a whirlwind of teenage angst, embarrassing mishaps, and unexpected friendships.

Plus, the hilarity of Hall added in and this movie just works.

You'll love reminiscing about the lines, the movie quotes ("No more yanky my wanky".... anyone?) and everything that went into making "Sixteen Candles" the success that it is.

It's all on this ediition, celebrating the 1984 release of, "Sixteen Candles." And, make sure to follow/subcribe for all of our content and movie reviews from T.J. And Jay on Apple, Spreaker, Spotify, Google, etc.!
