It's once again the season of love here at Car RayRob! As usual, Rob is ready for the occasion. To ring in the season, he has decided to bring an heirloom film, one passed down from his big sister to him and now he is passing it along to brother from another mother, Ray!

The 1983 Martha Coolidge directed teen comedy, VALLEY GIRL!

This gem of 80's nostalgia is loosely based on the Shakespeare classic ROMEO AND JULIET and stars the bearer of the unbearable weight of massive talent, Nicolas Cage! He stars alongside Deborah Foreman (REAL GENIUS, WAXWORK) as Randy and Julie, two star crossed lovers from different cliques who decide to upend the apple cart of social hierarchy and begin a relationship, much the chagrin of her friends. All things seem heavenly until the peer pressure begins to build and Julie has to decide what's more important, Randy or their social differences?

A movie that may be disregarded in the slew of imitations that followed, VALLEY GIRL not only helped solidify the conventions of the teen comedy but also helped launch a lexicon! I think it's fair to say we would not have classics like CLUELESS without VALLEY GIRL! So, grab your special someone, pop your popcorn, cuddle in close and bask in the glory of this romantic classic! Like, for sure!

Will the chemistry between these two leads help overcome the trappings of the classic it's based on for Ray? Or will movies that came in its shadow overcome its charms leaving him wanting more? Tune in to find out!
