Pretty In Pink, Drink The Sea, and Steal My Sunshine E120

We revisit Pretty in Pink at 40 and admit the movie’s plot is fine while the soundtrack is legendary. We trade takes on Ducky, Blaine, Spader’s chill menace, WLIR Screamers, and how a film’s music can outlast its script.

Then we fast-forward to a blistering live night with Drink the Sea at the 40 Watt in Athens, where Peter Buck, Barrett Martin, and Alain Johannes stitched songs to cinematic visuals and welcomed Mike Mills for a thunderous take on R.E.M.’s The One I Love.
