I saw this movie once when I was thirteen or so and clearly it made an impression on me as I discovered with this re-watching. Nearly every scene was seared onto my brain from that one viewing. This holds up remarkably well and has excellent performances by all the boys, but especially, I thought, Will Wheaton.

I think my favorite thing about this poster is the folds in it.
I need to see this again. I remember it so clearly. Hard to believe that much time has passed for all of us, and that we are now the ages of the adults in the film.
