All the Right Boys

About This Movie

All the Right Boys is one of those lesser-known curiosities from the mid-80s that gives you a real taste of the era’s youth culture and the pursuit of lost dreams. It’s got this laid-back California vibe, starting with Scott's escapades in a pinball arcade, which really sets the tone for his escapist journey. The performances have this raw, unrefined charm—Scott's character feels relatable and genuine among the ensemble of characters he meets. The film doesn't shy away from exploring themes of identity and belonging, which is pretty interesting for its time. The pacing has this nice ebb and flow, capturing both the thrill of adventure and the unpredictability of young adulthood. You can almost feel the sun-soaked California air as you watch.

All the Right Boys has a somewhat elusive presence in collector circles, with its VHS and DVD releases being sporadically available. The film has a small but dedicated following, particularly among fans of 80s nostalgia and obscure indie productions. Many collectors appreciate its blend of youthful themes and the California setting, which resonates with the era, making it an intriguing piece for anyone interested in film history from that time.
