guys pls i need help, i am looking for a movie but i forgot the name of the movie and the actors(its around 2018 - 2021)
the movie goes like this:
the main actress is a beverly hills girl and the main actor is a rock boy. The girl had a boyfriend, and one night the boy (main actor) went to the girl's (main actress) boyfriends party, but ended up causing trouble and getting kicked out. Im not sure but i think they saw each other before the trouble, and the boy snuck in to the party to meet her again. After that they began hanging out and so on.
And at the end they ended up together, but on the present scene, the girl was with her daughter. She was telling her daughter her love story and so on.
I can barely recall it now.
If you know this movie please comment down below ive been searching this for a month

At least three of these are Classical literature remakes, Romeo + Juliet obv, 10 things I hate about you is based on Taming of the Shrew by Shakespeare, and Clueless is based on Emma by Jane Austen. And it has be argued that all movies where a man gives a woman a makeover (like in She's all That) to raise her social standing is based on the play Pygmalion by George Bernard Shaw (which was made into the movie My Fair Lady. Did I miss one?
Overall great list love these movies!

I personally thought the movie Election was very dark and according to Reese Witherspoon before she did her iconic role in Legally Blonde she was at risk of being typecast after her performance in Election. According to an interview by the Hollywood Reporter she said They thought I was a shrew and she had been passed over for several other post-Election roles.

These highlight reels are decent but the prices back then kept me from going to them. You're next category should be teen movies of the 2000's. The first two on the list should be 200 Cigarettes and Bring it On. One of my favorites is Reality Bites with Ethan Hawke and Winona Ryder but I don't remember what year it came out.
reply

Great list! Scream and Jawbreaker are my go-tos. Jawbreaker is a cult classic & was under appreciated at the time, much like Jennifers Body. Other films from the 90s that I love which arent mentioned are the Hairy Bird (aka Strike, Encinoman, Son-In-Law and Dont Tell Mom the Babysitters Dead.
reply

The 90s version of Romeo and Juliet is also THE most faithful adaptation of the play to date, and a lot of people feel Harold Perrineaus take on Mercutio is the best Mercutio, like, head and shoulders above everyone else whos played the character.
reply

_Clueless is such an awesome film, thanks to Alicia Silverstone. I especially love Cher because shes one of the few popular girl characters who is portrayed as kind and emphatic. And for a film called Clueless, she sure has plenty of smart moments.
reply

The movie Juice should have been included on the list - 4 teenage kids growing up in Harlem came out in the 1990s - Ernest Dickinson the director- Tupac first acting role. Watch as one friend becomes obsessed with power. Such a good movie!
reply

Dazed and Confused is one of my favorite Movies and I recently saw Election during the summer the last few minutes at least and I lover it! Ten Things I hate about you is another one I love! there really were great teen movies back then
reply

i was HOPING drive me crazy would be on this list. even if it was in 20th place, i'm glad it made the list. it's maybe not the most original, but it was so much fun, even if i do get reo speedwagon stuck in my head every time.
reply

Drop Dead Gorgeous is so inappropriate at times but it is so damn funny. Kirsten Dunst is fantastic. I also love her in Dick with Michelle Williams and in Strike (All I Wanna Do. Shes been my favorite actress since I was 9 or so.
reply

Election is ranked way too low IMO. It's easily Top 3.
Some of my favorite 90s Teen Films are:
Pump Up the Volume
Juice
House Party
Boyz In The Hood
School Ties
Freeway
Varsity Blues
The Faculty

reply

I love drive me crazy, so underrated. The only thing that still get me upset is the ending with their parents. Drop dead gorgeous is such a great dark comedy, ahead of its time doing pov as the film direction.
reply

American Pie, Can't Hardly Wait, Jawbreaker, Scream, The Craft > She's All That, Dazed & Confused, Never Been Kissed, 10 Things I Hate About You
honorable mentions: Fear, SLC Punk, The Wood, The Faculty

reply

Never been kissed should not be on this list, Barrymore is terrible and the whole movie just try to sell that it's ok and romantic to hook up with your teacher once you are old enough. It's gross ffs.
reply

I was a kid in the 90s. I was watching Barney, Spider-Man, Batman, Gargoyles, Goof Troop, Pokemon, Digimon and Yu-Gi-Oh. I wasn't aware of any of these until I was a teen in the 2000s
reply

Loved all the Reese Witherspoon flicks mentioned. Also, Romeo and Juliet and Clueless is further evidence that Paul Rudd doesnt age. Clueless is awesome, too. I miss Heath Ledger.
reply

I was in my early 20s when they shot 10 Things I Hate About You in practically my backyard. Its always fun to watch that movie because I knew so many of the background characters.
reply

So happy to see Clueless at #1! Other favorites on the list are Pleasntville (is it possible to like a movie 'too much'? Amazing performances from the entire cast) and Election
reply

I still watch many of these from my teen days now & I just turned 45 a few days ago.
A few of my favs not on the list though are Dick, Hackers, The Faculty & Girl.

reply

Funny how people notice the ref for 10 things I hate about you but hardly anyone seem to figure that Clueless is a ref to Jane Auten s Emma (purist please don t scream)
reply

I watched Clueless once and had no desire to revisit it. I instantly knew the one guy was gay and nothing else in the movie is even memorable to me.
reply

Bring It On missed this list by 1 year. Other great teen movies from the 2000s include The Princess Diaries, Mean Girls, A Cinderella Story and She's The Man.
reply

Cry Baby is a serious movie
It is interpretation of spirit of music and subculture of '60 and '70 and how that helps shaping many years later.

reply

You forgot Empire Records, Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Varsity Blues, Now and Then, Mallrats, Welcome to the Dollhouse, The Babysitters Club
reply

Ok if i was born in 91 but brothers and sisters all 80s so grown up on their music movies etc what am i millennium or gen z or what?
reply

The only movie i would add because its one of my all time 90s movies would be Empire Records! Such an underrated movie.
reply

She's All That has the give the hot babe glasses so she can look like a dork sos she can be transformed into a hot babe trope.
reply

Election is a film that features a four way narration and Jason Biggs best performance (and I have seen American Pie)
