Sometimes it's surprising who can quote the movie right along with you--in my case it was a 20-year old resident at the halfway house where I work. He had jokingly flipped off a fellow resident and when I said, "Ooh, an obscene finger gesture from such a pristine guy." He popped right out with, "I'm not <i>that</i> pristine." Hilarious!<br /><br />Jewels--It probably goes completely against everything the movie stands for to say I think Allison was a much more interesting person than Claire, huh? :)<br /><br />Jane--I <i>just</i> quoted <i>Sixteen Candles</i> over on Jewels's blog a week or so ago. Everyone in my house speaks fluent John Hughes--they kind of have to. :)Masked Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08197019009052401812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12581247.post-14779991757300965452011-11-29T11:40:40.709-05:002011-11-29T11:40:40.709-05:00The only other movie to rival The Breakfast Club&#...The only other movie to rival The Breakfast Club's quotability was the other John Hughes movie to come out about that same time..."Sixteen Candles". <br /><br />I'm fairly certain I can still quote each of them from start to finish.<br /><br />"Naw.

I blame my many viewings of that movie in formative years and my deep and abiding crush on Bender for a good many of my late-adolescent, early adulthood indiscretions.
