I just watched this movie for the first time since it first came out - pleasant enough. But I couldn't help thinking, "what ever became of Jon Cryer?" Or Molly Ringwald, Andrew McCarthy or James Spader. Or Andrew Dice Clay or Dweezil Zappa for that matter. They all have kind of sunk under the radar, at least I never hear about any of them. Was this film the high point of all their careers?
WHET to the Entire Cast of "Pretty in Pink"?

No. It was 40 years ago and a teen movie. Most teen idols don’t have much of a career into adulthood r6. Not to mention Molly is starring in Ryan Murphy’s new series. Andrew McCarthy does a lot of writing and producing etc. Annie Potts is Annie Potts. It’s not that hard.

Whatever became of Jon Cryer? He was in a hit TV series that ran 12 fucking seasons. And Spader was in one series that was acclaimed, that ran 4 seasons, and another one that has run 10 seasons.

The only thing that has gone downhill for James Spader is his looks, the guy has worked steadily since the 80s and, he has a handful of awards on his mantel to show for it.

The one I loved was the girl who played Benny, the snobby trashy enemy of Molly Ringwald's character. There's a hilariously campy scene where Molly's character goes shopping for a prom dress at the mall and eavesdrops on Benny at a dress shop trying on expensive prom dresses in front of her equally trashy mother:
BENNY: "I can't wear this one! I look just like the bride on top of a wedding cake!"
BENNY'S MOTHER: "Oh... don't I wish!"

I remember reading something in People about Molly standing up Lillian Gish. Just Googled it.
GISH MISSED MOLLY: Lillian Gish, one of the most revered actresses in Hollywood history, was stood up by one of the youngest, Molly Ringwald. Gish, who was making movies 50 years before Ringwald was born, was to meet the young actress to discuss Hollywood then and now in an article for People magazine. Ringwald was due at noon but still hadn't shown by 3 p.m., when Gish gave up on her. 'I guess she doesn't care because I'm old,' said Gish, who was unfamiliar with Ringwald before the meeting was set up. A few hours later Ringwald sent a dozen roses along a note. 'Just as I was leaving I smashed my hand in the door and I had to put some ice on it to keep it from swelling,' Ringwald said. 'Then...I couldn't find a taxi and when I finally did I didn't have the right address.' No explanation as to why she didn't call.

I. e., She kept Gish waiting for three hours, then "a few hours" after than, sent roses with a note of explanation.
