Watch Party on FRIDAY: Girls Just Want To Have Fun (1985)

So.  I've never seen this.  It stars a very young Sarah Jessica Parker, Helen Hunt and Shannon Doherty.

I don't know what it's about. 

What I do know is that girls around my age apparently loved this movie in secret, because I'd never heard of it until I was dating Jamie and somehow it came up (I think I saw it for sale at Suncoast Video) and Jamie was all, like, "oh, wow!  Yeah!  That's fun and not something for you AT ALL."

So, easy enough.  I did not watch it.  But it's been probably 23 years or so since that conversation, and so... it is time. 

Let's find out why the girls want to have fun, and who is causing the dramatic tension by preventing them from having said fun and what kind of fun they'll have!

I don't think I said it was "fun" but I believe the rest of it. I'll say it's not boring. I'm sure I thought it was fun when I was 10, but don't remember it well enough to back that up today.
