Nice Girls Don't Explode (1987)

In the whimsical world of "Nice Girls Don't Explode," young April grapples with a peculiar, fiery dilemma. Every time her passions ignite for a man, so does everything around her, leading to a life tangled up in flames and the constant company of firefighters. Yet, this fiery issue isn't a burden of fate, but a manipulative scheme devised by her overprotective mother, desperate to keep her daughter all to herself. However, when the charming Andy enters their life, he challenges this bizarre status quo. Unwilling to accept such manipulation, he steps into the heat of the situation, determined to douse the flames of deceit. Amidst this heated drama, it's Fluffy, the innocent feline, who often finds himself singed in the crossfire. For April, the notion of "protection" on a date takes on a comically twisted meaning – carrying a fire extinguisher instead of a purse. "Nice Girls Don't Explode" is a vividly humorous and uniquely challenging love story, where passion ignites more than just hearts and the desire for romantic freedom battles against the blaze of maternal control.
