Ooh that reminded me, Catholic Boys (Mary Stuart Masterson again!).

Brilliant filum.

Everyone forgot about Judd Nelson, innit.

He he. Solid work but never reached the heights of St Elmo again. There was New Jack Citeh and Airheads which weren't TV movies at least.

All the usual 80s suspects and does the Goonies count??? Probably too young....
