She's cool. He's hot. She's from the Valley. He's not. 

Nicolas Cage and Deborah Foreman star in the totally awesome comedy Valley Girl. When Julie dumps her preppy boyfriend, the last thing she expects is to find love with the rockin' Randy. The future's open wide for Julie... but when her disapproving friends find Randy to be grody to the max, she is caught up in a culture clash between her Valley lifestyle and her Hollywood punk. 

Featuring a so-bitchin' soundtrack packed with New Wave hits, Valley Girl is a sweetly romantic slice of 80s nostalgia from director Martha Coolidge (Real Genius). Are you going to love it? We're, like, so sure!
