“Awesome … Totally Awesome!” FAST TIMES AT RIDGEMONT HIGH Returns to Cinemas July 30th & August 2nd

 

Celebrating its 35th anniversary, FAST TIMES AT RIDGEMONT HIGH – director Amy Heckerling’s ode to teen life in the early Eighties – is hosting a cinematic class reunion, as the beloved film returns to movie theaters for two days only, July 30 and August 2. Presented by Fathom Events and Turner Classic Movies as part of the yearlong TCM Big Screen Classics series, the event will also include specially produced commentary by TCM Primetime Host Ben Mankiewicz before and after the feature.

Join stoner dude Jeff Spicoli (Sean Penn), naïve sophomore Stacy Hamilton (Jennifer Jason Leigh), her managerial brother Brad (Judge Reinhold), the worldly Linda Barrett (Phoebe Cates), the shy Mark “Rat” Ratner (Brian Backer) and sleazy Mike Damone (Robert Romanus) as they experience the best and worst high school has to offer … and take a trip back in time to the pre-digital world of 1982!

TCM primetime host Ben Mankiewicz will provide specially produced commentary before and after the feature, which will return to more than 700 movie theaters for two days only:

* Sunday, July 30, at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. (local time)

* Wednesday, August 2, at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. (local time)
