The "Brat Pack"

Andrew McCarthy, famed in such movies as "Pretty in Pink", a great eighties movie (lots of self-absorption)

In fact, it was so great, it almost single-handedly defined the eighties brat pack.

Let's run through several of the notables.

James Spader

John Cusack ("Say Anything")

Matt Dillon

The Queen of the brat pack, Molly Ringwald. Children of the eighties (especially men) still have a sick fascination with Molly.

Not only did she star in "Pretty in Pink", but also "The Breakfast Club", and many other teen movies of the decade.

Anthony Michael Hall (with drunk date) in "Sixteen Candles". A true bratpacker.
