After seeing that clip in Intimate Portrait of Michael J. looking into Nancy's eyes in the hallway, I had to get a copy of it. It seems they are selling it for $9.99 at Amazon.com. People who have seen it have posted their reviews and say it is THE best teen movie of the 80s and even though it was made-for-TV it has a great cast. Just thought I'd let you all know in case you want to get a copy, too!

Also, you might keep your eyes open on www.ebay.com (http://www.ebay.com) , because there are ALWAYS old movies on there.

I have it. I got it from Amazon. It's so-so. The story really isn't great, or very funny. The only thing worth seeing is the chemistry betweeen M. Fox and Nancy.

I looked at the cast for High School U.S.A., and it looks like two stars from Diff'rent Strokes(Dana Plato, Todd Bridges) and another star from Gilligan's Island(Bob Denver). Looks like that movie had a lot of sitcom stars.

High School USA was one of my favorite movies when I was in high school. It is really just a goofy little film, but it does have a lot of 80's teen stars in it, as well as former teen stars of the 50's and 60's portraying their teachers and parents. It is a hoot! I bought it about 3 months ago at my local Dollar General store for five bucks. You might want to check there.

Although I initially saw High School USA for the older stars who were in it,I was definitely impressed by Michael and Nanct.I started seeing Family Ties and Facts of Life much more regularly after that.
