The Fabulous Stains - Join The Professionals

[jerkstore74]

I had this movie on betamax when i was a kid and rewatched it so many times that the tape broke. It's been years since I've seen it, but I remember it having an impact on how I viewed the world. Great movie.

THis movies is really good. Wasn't this Diane Lanes first role in a movie? She's so cute in this movie and her punk attitude made it better

[fishnetsNcigarettes]

GOD i love this movie! :)

[1974ninasimone]

I remember watching this movie when I was 10! I always loved it, but did not own a VCR at the time. I am so happy it has made a comeback after 20 years!!! This movie is ahead of its time. Diane Lane rocks:)

[rhubbard1821]

Diane Lane is the most beautiful woman in Hollywood and has aged gracefully. She was gorgeous here and equally so in Secretariat.

[Markfly]

@rhubbard1821, absolutely. Diane Lane is my muse.

I stayed up until 2 in the morning watching this movie it was really good I hope hollywood doesn't decide to do a remake

[third3degreeburn]

absolutly right.

or instead, TV could show it.

[JohnnySwitchblade]

Better than the version they played on stage...Good movie.

[johnnyalonso]

I remember seeing this film with an old friend and our brothers on summer break. This movie along with Suburbia, Decline Of Western Civilization & Repo Man really had an impact on the original hardcore post punk and new wave scene that hit the limelight from the west coast. Good times. Diane Lane is way hot in this film. Thanks for posting the video -

[Karnstein242]

What kind of guitar is Diane playing?

[miamaz]

Dean. It looked cool, but it didn't catch on.

[kookypelli]

Excellent social commentary on marketing.

[thisisdirtwerk]

Hear hear!

[KateKennedy729]

love this movie.

[jamessinagra]

Genius.

God save the Professionals.

[mustainelj]

Who's the other girl???

[robertsc24]

The other girl is Marin Kanter. I don't think she did any more movies after this one. I rented the DVD simply because I thought the cover was interesting and the summary on the back made me want to watch. On the directors commentary Lou Adler says he doesn't think she did any more films, but he always receives an Christmas card from her each year. The director never made another film either. The movie was good. I wonder why Marin Kanter had a shiner on her eye in the begining of video.

[need4zpeed]

The shot of Laura at 1:43 is hot! If ya notice in this video she's taller than the other two. This ending was filmed many months after the initial filming and she had a growth spurt! See 1:51. Great flick!

[littletimone]

This is a true gem to hear again after 27 years.I wish this was available on a soundtrack cd.I always craved the clapping towards the end, and Marins'background WhooOoooooos.That made this song.This was a damn fantastic "BOPPIN" song,and the epitome of early New Wave when it was still raw. Thanks for a GREAT post!!

[srussert28]

I saw this DVD at a local superstore

$14.99

[littletimone]

Thanks for the info., I'll check it out.

[doowoptramp13]

i just saw this and loved it!

[SonofMrPeanut]

Good news, folks! This comes out earlier than reported. According to the Amazon, this classic comes out legit Sept. 16th.

[JohnnyTarHeel84]

Geez I forgot Laura Dern was in this. Diane Lane STILL looks hot. Hey I much prefer the corporate rock chick look over the skunk...I'm normal like that.

[zx7gp]

Is that julie dreyfus in there?

[tjfoxx62]

Dreyfuss is a few years older than Lane and Dern. The 3rd girl is Marin Kanter

[zx7gp]

Dough!!!I meant Dern,Not Dreyfuss!!!

OOps

[heartpunch]
