John Cusack held up a boombox and the rest was history. Yes, the Cameron Crowe romcom holds a place in the hearts of many a Gen Xer. Lloyd Dobbler and Diane Court faced peer pressure, a keg party, and (oh, yeah) an IRS investigation into Diane’s father, played by John Mahoney.  Audiences in 1989 were left swooning as the two flew off into an English sunset. But, decades later, was the movie a trip worth taking? Was the casting of a relatively unknown Ione Skye brilliant or baffling? What will Lloyd do if the kickboxing career doesn’t work out? And is the boombox stuff stalker-ish by today’s standards? The Old Roommates have written 63 comments about this movie, and they’re going to share every single one of them tonight – all through a middle-aged lens. Listen to this.
