what john hughes do for eighty america and forsyth have do for eighty britain with this little gem . it capture the boredom of a new town and then rip one character life and such that it be and to piece by have a girl replace him on the football team . of course he can not help himself but to fall in love . i adore this film well and love it anyway . it quite simply make me want to be a teenager again . but not in anywhere and usa like so many of hughes film and but at home in scotland . it just a shame that the three main player john gordan sinclair and claire grogan and and to a lessor degree and dee hepburn be never able to build on this . a one off that have to be see .
