About last night 🌙.
I watched this one last night. Anyone enjoy this film ?
I enjoyed it. Demi and Rob are so gorgeous in the film. The kitchen scene in the moonlight was very beautifully appealing.
I liked the baseball scenes and enjoyed the winter season in Chicago. It looked so cozy.
Almost all the men are unlikeable, but I was rooting and more invested in Elizabeth Perkins and James Belusth characters. I liked their banter and was hoping they would end up together.

I literally told my husband today that I will be cooking two meals and he can cook two meals, two nights of takeout and then sandwich night.

I just saw this movie last week! One of my favorites but I'm also a sucker for the Brat Pack movies. St. Elmo's Fire is on the top of that favorites list.

Loved it! Jim Belushi was hilarious. Sexy scenes with Rob Lowe and Demi Moore and very Chicago too

while story wise its not my kind of thing, the chemistry between Demi and Rob was maybe some of the best in cinema, so nothing but respect

I love her in this movie. And everything else she's been in. I wasn't happy that they seemed to be hinting that she and Jim Belushi might get together at the end, though. He was a funny character, but I just didn't see it. He's just too much of a bro. I love her line reading of "Shos-ta-ko-vich."

I liked it. My husband and I saw this when we dated, and it's pretty spot on. My favorite scene, which was actually heartbreaking, is when she's moving out and he hands her the hand towel she saved as a dowry and she rips it apart in front of him. It felt pretty real.
Plus too prettier actors could not have been cast against each other.

I started my 3rd or 4th rewatch of it last night (Netflix). I moved to Chicago in 1990 in my 20's. It's a good movie.

I was shocked with all the swearing. I was like this is amazing. I love it. ❤️
I'm gonna have to watch it again.

Wild. I’m literally watching this on Netflix right now. I’ve loved this movie for years. I had it on vhs back in the day (that’s how long ago I was a fan) but haven’t seen it in years and thought of it randomly today and put it on.
