I was 32 and 1986 was the year I had my gender transition surgery, so the name had some meaning to me. I was living in Hollywood and not sure where I saw it, but on the first release or in the first year I guess.
It was so hip and cool and full of music, and that was when they still had music video channels, where I'd seen the Psychodelic Furs singing "I Love My Way"

It sure brings back great memories now- and I wish I was back there.

I was probably about 13 (I'm 21 now) and I'm not usually one for very girly films but this became one of my favourite films and I still love it! It was actually (probably surprisingly) my dad who owned the video and liked this movie and I watched it with him!

I turned 28 a few weeks ago and I just saw this movie tonight.

Passenger side, lighting the sky
Always the first star that I find
You're my satellite...

I saw it in the theater in 1986- seems like it was winter? I was 12 or 13.

I was a freshman in college and went on a date to see it. IIRC, this was the first off campus movie I watched.
