She has an alcoholic, loser dad (played by Harry Dean Stanton), and is being stalked by a duck-tailed clown named Duckie (played by Jon Cryer). She\u2019s also being stalked by one of the school\u2019s rich kids, Blane, but she\u2019s cool with his stalking because he\u2019s rich. So they start dating or something and nobody likes it for some reason, but then they end up together. Yay. Even though, the original ending in the script had it the other way around. You know it\u2019s a good movie when they have to change the ending after test screenings. We wonder if the characters from \u201cDesigning Women\u201d were possibly into sex trafficking, we discuss Tom Hanks\u2019 rapping son, and we wonder if the mom who abandoned this on-screen family ran off to Mexico with the unseen dad from \u201cE.T.\u201d Here\u2019s the creepy song \u201cElegia\u201d by New Order that we talk about and play. Also, watch the Oscar-nominated Animated Short \u201cMORE\u201d by Mark Osborn that we mention.  Tell us what you think by chatting with us (@filmsnuff) on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram, or by shooting us an email over at mailbag@filmsnuff.com.
