I recently saw a story on CBS Sunday Morning (one of my favs which means I’ve officially become my parents) about the actor Andrew McCarthy who was an overnight success in the ’80s.
I discovered Andrew in the movie Pretty in Pink and developed a mild teenage crush. I mean, he had amazing blue eyes AND was sensitive. Andrew had starred in Class and St. Elmo’s Fire where he became associated with The Brat Pack, and then went on to do more movies including Mannequin, Less Than Zero, and Weekend at Bernie’s.
