The film is considered one of the cornerstones of the 1980s, largely because it launched the careers of many actors from the so-called Brat Pack (named after the Rat Pack). Nowadays, the cast of the film seems incredibly star-studded, but it’s important to remember that at the time, most of the actors were just greenhorns. The film is about a group of friends who fall in love, solve problems, and help each other overcome difficulties — a kind of precursor to “Friends,” a sweet, kind, and intelligent film.
