A brat's perspective about something nobody cares about
If you were alive, a teenager, you knew the Brat Pack.
I was and did, but never read the article that has/had these actors all in a tizzy. I just thought it was a nickname given to spoiled, indulged young actors. Not that I knew ANYTHING about them. The title, that label made me believe it.
I liked the movies and saw the tabloid headlines while waiting in line at the grocery store. Still, I watched their movies. All of them. Publicity, as they say-never a bad thing,right?
Talk about First World problems, Andrew...
I didn't make it all the way through. Too much cry me a river. They were, still are, successful working actors. Someone wrote something unkind (was it, though?) about them decades ago. How awful for not every single thing in one's life not to go exactly as planned or prefectly.
Seriously, Andrew, look around. This is the thing you decided to create a documentary about?
Brats or not, they made engaging movies that defined- or documented- a generation's unique blip in time. I can't work up any tears for them.
And certainly not for " brat-pack adjacent". Good grief, I was out at that exact moment.
