TWO MOON JUNCTION

This one is on my guilty-pleasure list. It's a soft-core romance/drama, 1988, starring Sherilyn Fenn (Twin Peaks fame) and Richard Tyson (the dad in Kindergarten cop). Sherilyn plays a southern belle from a wealthy family, engaged to Martin Hewitt - hmm, I'm remembering him with Brooke Shields in Endless Love with the same-named theme song - the approved rich boy. She winds up having a torrid fling with Richard and ultimately has to choose between what is right for her heart, or maybe just loins, and what her family has endorsed. Her grandmother is played by Louise Fletcher (an older, sophisticated and very platinum Nurse Ratchet from One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest!). Burl Ives is the Sheriff assigned to break up the lovers. Kristy McNichol is all grown up and makes an appearance vying for Richard's attention too.

Shall we add more obstacles to Sherilyn's interest in Richard and her family's disapproval? Well, sure...he's a CARNEY. Let's add Herve Villechaize to the carnival craziness, and no, I'm not kidding. I figure the next time I watch this movie he'll finally reward me with a familiar cry of "the plane! the plane!"

Okay, it's definitely a chick flick but the soft-core factor will hold your attention as well, gentlemen. The bachelor and bachelorette parties are...well...fun.
