THE BEST OF EVERYTHING, has it all. 3 girls come to New York to make a success at a publishing house. Complete with bosses making passes, rich boyfriends, sets that mirror MAD MEN, and last but not least, JOAN CRAWFORD!

Love this list and makes me want to rent Riding in Cars With Boys this weekend! I love that movie.

A Single Man and An Education are two of my favorite films both for entertainment and for aesthetics. I also have a soft spot for Peggy Sue Got Married. And don't forget Back to the Future! Another little-known gem is Shag, with Phoebe Cates.
