Sounds like our ages are within a few years of each other. She was not the only reason I liked Beat Street, but it didn’t hurt.
FWIW, I rewatched Beat Street a few months ago, with a little bit of fear that I’d find one of my old favorites was actually unwatchable drek.
Nope. I know it wasn’t an oscar winner, and maybe I’m one of like 15 people who think this, but that movie still slaps, and I appreciated some of the commentary far more deeply with a few more decades behind me.
