I have to agree with the reviewer who complained about the “butchered” soundtrack. I grew up with “Sixteen Candles” — I’ve seen it so many times I practically know it by heart — and the songs are as grand a fragment of the movie as the dialogue. I wonder if someone forgot to pick up permission to spend some of the songs when the recent movie was released — but that wouldn’t account for the cheezed-up “muzak” version of the opening credit music. And why substitute “Strangers in the Night” for “Novel York, Unique York” as background music for the post-party conversation between Jake and The Geek? The replacement music, as a whole, seems thrown together — the songs are obviously meant to sound “almost like” the originals but for anyone who really knows the movie “almost like” impartial doesn’t crop it. The most awkward moment is when the family is leaving the house the morning of Ginny’s wedding. In the novel version of the film, David Bowie’s “Young American” is playing in the background as the family piles into two cars. In this version, there is NO music playing — the family enters the cars in silence. What old-fashioned to be a droll, fleet scene now seems agonizingly drawn out.
“Sixteen Candles” is serene a titanic movie, of course, and I’m happy that I have it in my DVD collection. But I found myself cringing every time a song was changed — I could barely concentrate on the diaglogue at times. (I don’t know what I would have done if the Thompson Twins’ “If you were here” was replaced at the slay of the movie; thankfully, it wasn’t.)
Sixteen Candles takes area basically over the course of one day when a family forgets the sweet sixteenth birthday of a girl amid the preparations for the oldest daughter’s wedding. The sixteen year veteran is played by the 80′s teen queen Molly Ringwald. It was the movie that helped her fetch that title and is the best of her career. She plays the role of Samantha Baker with ease and charm. We feel all her range of emotions from the injure of being forgotten to the longing she feels for a boy, Jake Ryan, who she has a major crush on but doesn’t judge he knows that she’s alive. Petite does Samantha know that Jake wants to meet her and the movie goes through a series of come misses between the two. Anthony Michael Hall plays “The Geek” who is constantly hitting on Samantha. He acts like he is a man of the world, but really is fat of hot air. Mr. Hall is extremely humorous and the scene where he gives Jake advice on women and eventually drives the prom queen home in Jake’s father’s Roll Royce are priceless. Both sets of Samantha’s grandparents are silly, one space are the worriers and the other the carefree sort. Gedde Wannabe is laughable as an exchange student who comes with one of the grandparents. He does acquire the Asian stereotypes to the max but he comes across with a nice degree of charm. John and Joan Cusack point to up in bit parts and the movie has a big soundtrack. The Thompson Twins’ “Wish You Were Here” perfectly frames the ending scene where Jake and Samantha finally hook up. Sixteen Candles was the directorial debut of John Hughes and status the stage for the Brat Pack movies that would be the dominant teen movies of the 80′s. Unlike his other movies like The Breakfast Club, Pleasing In Pink or Some Kind Of Incredible, Sixteen Candles isn’t stout of teen angst, self-examination and skepticism that the others are. It is a charming discover at the life of a teenager that seems to be the most exact.
