Tastes Better than "American Pie"
8 February 2002
Whaaaaat?! No nudity? No graphic sex scenes? Limited profanity? And great acting? Doesn't sound like a good teen flick by today's standards...but "Love" is. The relationship "pops" between main characters Ronald and Cindy. Cindy--a beautiful, yet mature young woman--popular, but with genuine character and a desire for true love. Ronald--a likewise intelligent teen, naive that he has won the heart of his dream girl, who gets blinded by fame. The relationship--actually, the movie--provides some valuable lessons on friendship and the costs of gaining our wildest dreams.

Along with "The Breakfast Club," "Say Anything," and "The Sure Thing," this is one of the best teen films of the 80's.
