[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is not very productive to judge a 1985 film with 2024 eyes.[/quote] The guy who made the film was hamstrung by the studio. He wanted to make a movie about super privileged kids after graduating from a fancy college (Georgetown) whose primary goal was to get rich…and marry rich. It was intentionally white. The characters were intentionally jerky a-holes. In fact, he wanted them to be even more jerky and screwed up. It was a very 80s film in terms of capturing the self-centeredness and materialism. [/quote] Why did he want to make a movie about such a boring demographic?[/quote] Why is that a boring demographic? [/quote] Rich white people—their stories simply haven’t been told enough. :roll: [/quote]
