    Valley Girl (1983) has arguably the most incredible soundtrack of any film ever. Partly because it is great music, but irrespective of the specific music, it's incredible because the songs were picked for the soundtrack BEFORE they were iconic hits. Whoever made the selection for the music soundtrack had incredible insight into what was needed, fit and would stand the test of time!

      Martha Coolidge picked all the music after being heavy into the music scene in L.A a few years prior to making the movie.

    For me, "Valley Girl" is the single best 80s teen film. I think the reason is because Valley Girl takes place in a specific place (Los Angeles) at a very specific time (late 1982), whereas most 80s teen movies represent a more generic 80s that could take place anywhere in the US during the years 1982-1987 or so. Also, the onscreen chemistry between Nicholas Cage and Deborah Foreman is unmistakable. You can feel these two kids really liking one another. The fact that Randy is such a quirky, imperfect, yet likeable leading man gives the film real character.

    There were some great iconic/era films in the 80s, but the two that stand out are Fast Times At Ridgemont High, and of course Valley Girl. These two films really defined an era.

    the most iconic movie of the 80's in my mind. It struck a chord with me when it came out and still does. Amazing film and one of the best soundtracks ever.

    Just love this movie like totally! I think it was great when he asked her "When you compare the world of today to the world of Valley Girl, what's lacking?" and she's answers, "Everything". Having graduated HS in 83" I couldn't agree more!

    Michael Bowen's daughter is a friend of mine. I was fortunate enough to meet him a few times when she lived in the North San Diego County area. He's a super cool cat. She took him to a local bar one time and he spent the night entertaining the patrons and her friends with some great stories and anecdotes. Michael and E.G. Daily are very good friends and he really loves and supports her. Michael and his daughter are truly amazing people.
