That moment when Tommy is so cool that he wears his glasses inside

[@stacyantigua1573]

😂

[@erincobbb]

pretty sure he was high LMAO

[@chloejenkins7922]

😂

[@clarebell5926]

Personally, I can’t stand that! I think it’s quite annoying and rude! When you’re being interviewed, unless it’s a really bright, sunny day and you’re outside, people want to be able to look into your eyes when they speak to you! I like C Thomas Howell (in fact, I fell in love with him in The Outsiders), but I think sunglasses are unnecessary here! Just take them off fella!!

[@clarebell5926]

[@miabarret1273]

“nah.. i was born like this.”

[@luis.6174]

I love that Tommy is talking about Grandview USA its such a beautiful and underrated movie . It was directed by the same guy who directed Grease , that's probably why the musical sequences were so cool . Interesting how there are not really behind the scenes pics/clips of Tommy during the making of Soul Man .

[@satansfavoriteson5538]

bruh grandview usa is such a good movie

[@Tr0nzoid]

Speaking of "Soul Man," Darren Dalton had a bit of a cameo appearance in that movie during the basketball game, but he is not credited for some reason.

[@rannain4k]

[@clairecoppock1876]

Darron dalton shoes are such a vibe. Them orthopaedic Velcro shoes.

Sweet

[@alliesanfers6579]

He. Was. No offense. But definitely. High. Because. 1 he is. Wearing. Sunglasses. Inside. 2

[@sifugurusensei]

I wore sunnies inside and not always high. In the eighties, sunnies were a sorta fashion statement. Like Vince Latello said in My Science Project, "when you're cool, sun shines on you 24 hours a day"

[@jennyoneill8879]

Tommy and patrick were in 3 movies together

[@helenacharles5466]

He’s definitely high
