Vision Quest(1985) - Because It Was Made In My Hometown!



"Vision Quest" came out in 1985. It was about high school wrestler Loudon Swain(Matthew Modine), who wants to drop two weight classes and wrestle a very tough oppponent, causing friction with those around him, and with his health. Along the way, he meets up with a mysterious woman named Carla that his dad boards a room to.



The movie was made in my hometown and also features the first film appearance by Madonna, who appears singing her hit singles "Crazy For You" and "Gambler", in a scene taking place in a bar. Journey's "Only The Young" comes from the movie too.



The movie also stars Linda Fiorentino, Charles Hallahan, Ronny Cox(Beverly Hills Cop), and Jake Ryan himself, Michael Schoenfeld.

Opening credits that shows the city - circa 1985. Lol.

I don't know this one. I have never even heard of it. It looks like it could be good.

I'm not too surprised. I don't think too many people have. Lol. It's not a great movie, but it's a very 80s movie with a great soundtrack and, of course, it was made in my town. Lol.

I guess I'm lucky. I have sisters and a brother in law who feel that was their decade too, so they love it as well.
