Valley Girl (film)

"This is the story of Randy and Julie. The way they come together and the people who try to pull them apart. Julie's cool. Randy's hot. She's from the Valley. He's... not!"

- Valley Girl trailer (1983)

Julie is, like so over her preppy boyfriend, she dumps him on the escalator at the Galleria. And when she meets punker Randy, her eyes practically bug out because she thinks he's sexy even though he makes her friends gag! But even if Randy's ready to stop the world and melt with her, can Julie risk losing her friends and her super popularity at school just to be with him?

So, a punk kid from Hollywood decides to crash a party in The Valley where he meets the girl of his dreams. Throw in an awesome '80s soundtrack and obvious references to Romeo and Juliet and you get this romantic comedy starring Deborah Foreman and Nicolas Cage. True love is only a zip code away!

 * Valley Girl: Like, duh.  But this film came out too late to be a Trope Codifier; it was nothing more than an attempt to cash in on the Valley Girl fad well after the trope had been established.
