Closed Captioned; Standard Screen; Soundtrack English; Soundtrack French; Soundtrack Spanish; English Subtitles Seven friends, fresh out of Georgetown University, cope with the fears and realities of adulthood while drinking at their favorite hangout, St. Elmo's. Alex (Judd Nelson) and Leslie (Ally Sheedy) are career-minded and heading towards marriage. Virginal Wendy (Mare Winningham) only has eyes for wild, would-be rocker Billy (Rob Lowe)--whose wife and child don't prevent him from trying to relive his college days. Kevin (Andrew McCarthy) ponders the meaning of life and secretly desires Leslie, while his roommate Kirbo (Estevez) pursues an elusive older woman (Andie McDowell). Jules (Demi Moore) rounds out the group with her massive debts and cocaine problem. Joel Schumacher's twentysomething ensemble piece stands, for better or worse, as a revealing peek into the popular cinema--and values--of the 1980s. The film also represented a graduation of sorts, as Estevez, Sheedy, and Nelson portrayed high school students in John Hughes's THE BREAKFAST CLUB earlier in 1985. St. Elmo's Fire Reviews: "...Seven attention-getting young stars....ST. ELMO'S FIRE is as good a film as any to put into a time capsule this year..."

St. Elmo's Fire Movie Review Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars)  Demi Moore 80s style.
This is a great 80s movie with quite a few members of the Brat Pack (Estivez, Lowe, Nelson, McCarthy, Sheedy, etc.)I can relate to this movie very well because the movie takes place in the 80s in Georgetown, and I was 18 and in the military at Ft.Belvior Virginia.(about 20 minutes from D.C.)This movie is about the lasting bonds of freinship and how those bonds never really go away even when you move away or seperate from those you know and love. I really got home sick watching this movie in the Military theater, only being in the military for 6 months. By the end of the movie though, I realized that everybody has to move on with thier life or carrer but that doesnt mean that old friendships ever really die or go away. This movie touches base on just about every situation most young adults go through in striving to become a part of the society around them in the 80s, (Drug use, Adultry, Relationships,Crushes,Carrers, etc.)This is an excellent movie about friendship even if you didnt grow up in the 80s.

Based on the journals of Brother Gaspar de Carvajal, AGUIRRE, THE WRATH OF GOD is director Werner Herzog's hallucinatory tale of Spanish colonialists searching for El Dorado, the legendary city of gold, in 16th-century Peru. When the travellers reach an impasse, a scouting party is assembled to search for any traces of the mythical empire. As they attempt to forge their way through the dense jungle, more and more of the party falls ill while their ruthless leader, Don Lope de Aguirre (Klaus Kinski), grows increasingly insane.
Widely considered to be Herzog's finest film, AGUIRRE, which shares much in common with Francis Ford Coppola's APOCALYPSE NOW, highlights the director's visionary approach to filmmaking. Like Coppola's film, accounts of AGUIRRE's ...

St. Elmo's Fire DVD
$16.89 
The title refers to the night when three men, Randy (Matt Dillon), his cousin Carl (Paul Reiser) and Detective Dehling (John Goodman), all meet Jewel Valentine (Liv Tyler) at a bar called McCool's. Actually, they don't so much meet her as fall under her spell when they first lay eyes on her. In her clinging red dress she looks like a cross between a beautiful damsel in distress and the Lady In Red looking for John Dillinger. The story begins with Randy, desperate to be rid of Jewel, hiring a sleazy hitman, played by Michael Douglas in an outré toupee. His story of how Jewel led him to ruin, filmed in a stylized flashback bathed in blue, is mirrored by Carl talking to his therapist--played with a delicious verve by Reba McEntire, and Detective Dehling talking with a priest; each telling their own stories of obsession with Jewel. Tyler is clearly beautiful, but it's the evil, scheming side of her character--delivered with voluptuous softness and irresistible badness--that ...

As tough-talking and street-smart as he is sensitive and well-read, Spenser (Robert Urich) is a Boston-based private eye whose penchant for poetry is as developed as his physique. Based on Robert B. Parker's book series, which carries on the tradition of hardboiled masters like Raymond Chandler and Dashiell Hammett, ABCs popular TV show SPENSER FOR HIRE ran from 1985-88. After its cancellation, four feature-length films were released which featured the same cast as the show. Unlike the series, however, these were based directly on four of Parker's books, CEREMONY, PALE KINGS AND PRINCES, THE JUDAS GOAT, and ...
