HEY YOU GUYS!!!
This one really takes me back to 1985.... "The Goonies"
The Goonies, an American adventure-comedy film directed by Richard Donner. The screenplay was written by Chris Columbus from a story by executive producer Steven Spielberg. The film's premise features a band of pre-teens who live in the "Goon Docks" neighborhood of Astoria, Oregon attempting to save their homes from demolition, and in doing so, discover an old Spanish map that leads them on an adventure to unearth the long-lost fortune of One-Eyed Willie, a legendary 17th-century pirate.

I've got a copy of this film at home and I watch it when I'm not well as it's my comfort feel warm and fuzzy inside film. I was 10 when this came out and I loved the comedy, romance and thrill!!! Definitely in my best ever top 10.
ReplyDeleteIt's a great film, isn't it Vicky? Even though the movie also takes me back to the 80's, I think it really holds up well and for today's generation.
