Guardian Angel
Who believes in guardian angels? I am a believer for there have been many times that I have felt someone following me and there was no one there when I looked. There were a few times when I thought I seen someone who looked familiar but I knew it could not have been them for they were, for lack of a better word, DEAD. Guardian angels to me are angels that one may or may not see who seem to help make decisions or protect us from harm. One experience I had when swimming when I was younger and pushed off the dock into the creek for, I was little and did not know how to swim yet I felt like someone was pulling me up and over to the ladder.

Good movie to review!
This is an excellent critique!
I never heard of this one
I love this movie! I read there was a version where she and Duckie end up together, but they decided not to do it because it "would never really happen". The director made a different movie for that reason, and asked Molly to be the lead and she declined. I loved Duckie.. and would have chose him.
I love this movie!!! Great job with this
Excellent Tiff. Of course for me the #1 highlight is the music. The soundtrack for this movie is filled with all great new wave classics. Other than the music I love the styles/fashion... I lived this era and loved the trendy styles. Great movie!!!
Your reviews are always so pretty! I loved this!
Love your style here Tiffany and that you have even managed to fit in a brief analysis of themes! Love it! Fun film.. just watched last year. I had a bit of John Hughes retrospective when I had covid and then a cold right after… his films whether directed by or written by him are swell! ☺️
Awesome critique!!! Love it!!!
Great review of an iconic movie from my young adulthood.
Great review. Haven't seen this in decades.
Such a classic movie. No matter what decade you watch it, it's fantabulous. Love the use of "wrong side of the tracks" to describe how she is considered one of the less desirables.
That was an 80's movie for sure - lol. Great critique ♥️
This was a GREAT critique ☺️
Well done, Tiffany! I loved Duckie and his music solo, plus that ending! Great critique!
This was wonderful 💖😉📝💯👌🎉
Great job, Tiffany! I love how your critique mirrors the image.
