Episode Details

We near the end of You've Never Seen September with a look at a film that we guarantee you've never seen unless you're a fan of a certain '90s VHS pre-film trailer line-up: Big Girls Don't Cry... They Get Even. Starring a veritable cavalcade of notable stars including David Strathairn and Griffin Dunne, it follows Hillary Wolf as a teenager in a mixed family featuring step-brothers and half-sisters who runs away to try and prove a point to them. It's a film in the vein of John Hughes but without any of the witty dialogue or memorable characters often characterized by a Hughes film. The Projection Booth's Mike White joins Chris to break down the lackluster comedy, the usage of the star actors, and Hillary Wolf's Olympic career.
