Some Kind of Wonderful (1987)

In the bustling industrial heartland of high school, Keith, a mechanic and art enthusiast, finds his dreams and his father's ambitions at odds. Despite his father's desire for him to pursue higher education, Keith's heart lies with his paintbrush rather than textbooks. His universe revolves around his tomboyish best friend, Watts, and the radiant Amanda, the most sought-after girl on campus. When Amanda, weary of her life of privilege with her affluent boyfriend, Hardy Jenns, decides to break free, Keith seizes the opportunity. He invites her on a date, a move she accepts as a defiant response to Hardy's arrogance. However, Hardy, hailing from the town's lavish quarters and unable to digest his rejection, devises a vindictive plan to embarrass Keith and Amanda. As Keith finds himself entangled in this complex web of class conflict and teenage romance, Watts is wrestling with her own emotional turmoil. She discovers that her feelings for Keith run deeper than the innocent realms of friendship, a revelation that threatens to shake the very foundation of their relationship. "Some Kind of Wonderful" is a touching exploration of adolescent love, class struggles, and the painful journey of self-discovery, set against the backdrop of high school life. It's a tale that boldly questions societal norms and challenges the viewer to reflect on the true meaning of friendship and love.
