...short time in the minors (McDonald's and Pizza Hut commercials) she landed a role in a daytime TV special. She is anything but a gaga post-teen now, though she is counted a member of the group of kinda talented, kinda famous young actors somewhat unfairly called the Brat Pack. She needs only a few credits for her bachelor's degree at the University of Southern California. A partly written novel lies fallow. Good sense rules her life, though she has been known to wander off go- cart driving with Brat Packers Emilio Estevez and Judd Nelson (respectively...

...trendies are involved in this one. Brat-packsters Nelson and Ally Sheedy are stars, actors who in Bogart's day would be lucky to get a job in a department store window. Walter Hill, the workmanlike directorial panderer who gave us such hyped-up schlock as 48 HRS and Streets of Fire takes credit for co-producing and co-writing, while Sixteen Candles and Breakfast Club leftover Michelle Manning directed...

...YEAR OF THE DRAGON, a suspense-action film starring brat packer Mickey Rourke as a hard-nosed New York detective out to expose the crooked dealings of the Chinese mafia, marks Director Michael Cimino's wobbly return to the silver screen after his cinematic catastrophe of 1982, the much-heralded Heaven's Gate. In a vain attempt to redeem himself in the eyes of the viewing public, Cimino assumes the Herculean task of grafting together elements of the action-adventure, love-story, cops-and-robbers and suspense-thriller genres.
