“Snappily Times at Ridgemont High” Is a strong contender for the best teen movie from the eighties.
The case for the movie is easy to make: It is written by Cameron Crowe, who wrote Jerry Maguire, Say Anything, and Almost Well-known. It is beautifully filmed and directed. (Director is Amy Heckerling, who apart from being awefully cute has made such amazing movies as Clueless.) It is silly and genuine. And it has a exquisite cast of young actors who where unknowns then.
The surfer/stoner is famously played by Sean Penn in one of his first roles, and he is awesome. Jennifer Jason Leigh is perfect as the young innocent fifteen-year-old. (Amazingly she was about 20 when she played it, but you’d never know it.)

And Phoebe Cates… As Amy Heckerling says in a featurette: The boys impartial loves Phoebe… the rental cassettes always track a lot around the residence where she takes off her top, they’ve been freeze-framed so great…” Which is as favorable a reason as any to find the DVD version, they slow-mo and freeze-frame a lot better… But seriously, Phoebe is a astonishing actress who has been woefully underused by Hollywood. And she is also objective stunningly cute to boot. Even if this film had nothing else going for it, fetch it for her. (She is also helpful in the later film Princess Caraboo, and she is buck nude in the light “Paradise”, which I hope they will set on DVD soon.)

One of the classic high school movies, Swiftly Times spawned a slew of teenage talent on the vast shroud, but no one was more memorable in this movie than Sean Penn as Spicoli. Amy Heckerling cuts out a slash of Southern Californian life from a San Bernardino high school that shows both honor students and misfits alike. While the signature moments belonged to Spicoli, there were many other tall scenes such as the ongoing burger war in which Deem Reinhold finds himself on the short slay of the spatula. Meanwhile his itsy-bitsy sis, a seemingly innocent Jennifer Jason Leigh, experiments with dating and sex with an droll pair of misfits, Brian Backer and Robert Romanus. Phoebe Cates tries to area her young prodigy straight but to no avail. Forest Whitaker even has a notable moment in this movie as the bruising defensive lineman who takes out the destruction of his prized car on the opposing team. Minute did he know that Spicoli had a hand in it. But, it is the hilarious relationship between Spicoli and Mr. Hand (Ray Walston) that steals the point to. Snappily Times may appear a bit dated, but it hasn’t lost any of its humor.
