Sixteen Candles (1984)

Sixteen Candles has been a fan favorite for generations due to Molly Ringwald’s fabulous portrayal of the disheartened girl whose 16th birthday was forgotten by her family. It’s one of the memorable films of the 1980s and a “Brat Pack” classic.

This movie, or at least some of it, would have some changes that need to be made. Particular things that wouldn’t hold up well involve the subplot of trying to get a girl’s underwear for a bet, as well as the portrayal of Japanese exchange student as being pretty stereotypical.
