I’m a huge cinephile, and I find that more often than not, I’ll remember movies that nobody else really remembers or cares about.

I think there are a host of movies from like 1984 - 1992 that are more popular / well-remembered by Xennials because of our ages during that period. Maybe it’s cause we’d stay home sick and catch them on tv or what not.

I present one such movie: White Water Summer. Even when I watch this now, I feel like I am having a complete out of body nostalgia experience where I can still see my living room where I grew up, smell the fresh cut lawn when I’d ride my bike, etc.

The movie itself is so good, and never gets the love other 80s films do. It’s got that perfect angsty kid thing and Kevin Bacon starting to play “bad” guys was like 🤯 at the time.

Also, if not for this movie, many of us would never have even heard this fire lost 80s track. I can’t even hear this without thinking of the movie. https://youtu.be/kCFPKt2jzlk?si=1UXWDncY7CODL3oc

Anyone else? What does this movie conjure up for you?
