Classy Days
Hooking up with a much older woman has unforeseen consequences for a shy prep school student in this comedy featuring Jacqueline Bisset as the older woman in question. The film is well known nowadays for a twist regarding Bisset’s identity, but curiously enough, this twist does not come about until nearly an hour into the movie. The film actually works better before the twist is revealed with the focus instead on the very real bond that develops between roommates Andrew McCarthy and Rob Lowe who connect over a mutual love for practical gags and dislike of authority figures. Their first two pranks are in fact arguably the film’s biggest highlights (a meeting gone awry at a sister school aside). Getting back to the twist, the key disappointment is that it is not milked for very many laughs, an awkward dinner table conversation aside. The tone of the film in fact shifts in a jolting manner from comedy to drama. Also, Bisset’s motives and in particular, her persistence to carry on with McCarthy, do not quite ring true. That said, it is otherwise a solid late career performance for the Golden Globe winning actress. McCarthy and especially a charismatic and charming young Lowe steal the show though, and even with the plot twist, the overall film is about them coming to accept their faults and differences on the pathway to getting an education in life, and while abrupt, the ending perfectly captures just how genuine their friendship is. It is also interesting to see John Cusack and Alan Ruck younger than ever before and Cliff Robertson is always good to have on hand.

Weird early 80s film dealing with the boundaries of friendship, and the expectations and awkwardness of youth!
As many others have noted with the film, ‘Class’, is that it is quite uneven! It doesn’t know if it’s a comedy, romance, or even tense drama. It’s a weird 80s teen film, but I don’t even think I could call it that! And, even when it’s all said and done and the credits start to roll, one is left wondering what this film was actually all about. I’m guessing crossing the lines of friendship, given the situation with Jonathan and Skip’s Mom. And I’m guessing the film was about loyalty and friendship overall given the ending! Chuck in a few themes about “class” itself, and the film seems to make sense!

However, the film is still uneven overall, but the performances from a young Andrew McCarthy (Jonathan) and Rob Lowe (Skip) are worth watching- and there is some excellent scenes within the film! Like Skip’s “F*** you!” moment after the inquisitor belittles his background and insinuates him of cheating! Some funny moments when Jonathan in the girl’s campus causing chaos, and when he’s trying to talk to a girl at the bar! I know I’ll never roll a quarter for my aura on my face in a club or pub! Also, he transition of Skip being loud prank-loving fun to Jonathan’s “morose” depressing personality being swapped over after Skip discovers Jonathan with his Mom was pretty interesting! Skip becomes colder and hard to approach by Jonathan, whereas Skip would overwhelm Jonathan and put him unwillingly in awkward situations! I didn’t really like the closure between Jonathan and Ellen (Jacqueline Bisset), and I would have liked a scene with Skip addressing his mother in regard to Jonathan! Would a friendship between them really survive that? The film seems to suggest that it will survive due to Skip’s alienation and contempt for his background and parents, and his affinity with Jonathan as they endeavor towards Harvard!

This is by no means a brilliant in the likes of other teen films of the same era. It’s worth watching alone because it the feature debut of very young actors in Andrew McCarthy, John Cusack, Alan Ruck (‘Ferris Bueller’s Day Off’), Virginia Madsen (‘Sideways’), Lolita Davidovich (‘Intersection’) and Casey Siemaszco (‘Young Guns’)! When you look at a 17 year old John Cusack in that film, you wouldn’t think that he would become the most successful star out of the entire cast- though McCarthy did do very well in the 1980s too! Rob Lowe and Jacqueline Bisset and this debut cast all do very well in their performances. While ‘Class’ may leave you wondering a little, it is worth watching for an unusual representation of awkwardness, youth, romance and friendship!

***½ out of *****!
