I won't pretend I didn't know what the Brat Pack was, but even watching them at the time I never though "ohhh I'm watching a Brat Pack movie".
Andrew McCarthy to me is Heaven Help Us.
Emilio Estevez - Young Guns I & II.
Demi Moore - Ghost.
The rest are just faces that were in a few 1980's movies. A good documentary as it shows us
neurosis were alive and kicking back in the day and not just a symptom of modern Hollywood.
yeah same ,
my list would have been 2/3 different names , in fact I know theres a specific list but I just take "brat pack" to mean any of the main teenage actors of the 80s
I grew up during this time period, these movies mean quite a bit to me. However, the actors themselves, the Brat Pack as an entity is unimportant. I'm rather amused that Andrew McCarthy, out of the whole group, was the one to put this together, when he was the least important part of that group if you were to rank them. He's the figurative 5th wheel, and this documentary screams of an attempt to bring himself back into the spotlight for a brief instant, a spotlight that never really shined down upon him like the others. I don't even have interest in watching this dumb thing, I'd rather just watch the movies they came from.
Agreed, Emilio would be the main member of the Brat Pack that you'd think should've done this, it started with him from an interview, the term did anyways, and he was always the one that hated the term more than any of them and he was imo the leader of the Brat Pack. If not him then Molly or Judd, but yeah McCarthy as you said was one of the least important members of the group.
