John Sayles's first major studio film, with professional 35-millimeter cinematography and craftsmanlike if uninspired camera placement shoring up the Sayles virtues of empathetic characterization and relaxed, efficient screenplay construction. Rosanna Arquette is very good as a New Jersey girl whose greaser boyfriend looks much less desirable when she graduates from high school to a Seven Sisters college. Set in the mid-60s, the film's remembrances of teenage culture are warm without being dishonestly rosy, and the rock sound track is used to develop dramatic points as well as milk nostalgia. As a filmmaker, Sayles still seems more likable than incisive or original, but it's a likability with a certain brilliance. With Vincent Spano and Joanna Merlin. 译文(3): 约翰·塞勒斯的第一部大型工作室电影，拥有专业的35毫米摄影技术和巧妙但缺乏灵感的相机布置，支撑了塞勒斯富有同情心的人物塑造和轻松高效的剧本构建的优点。罗莎娜·阿奎特（Rosanna Arquette）作为一个新泽西女孩表现得很好，当她从高中毕业到七姐妹大学时，她的男朋友看起来就不那么讨人喜欢了。这部电影以60年代中期为背景，对青少年文化的记忆是温暖的，而不是不诚实的玫瑰色，摇滚音轨被用来发展戏剧性和怀旧情绪。作为一名电影制作人，塞勒斯看起来仍然比精辟或原创更讨人喜欢，但这是一种具有一定才华的讨人喜欢的方式。与文森特·斯潘诺和乔安娜·梅林。
