He’s cool; she’s hot. She’s from the Valley; he’s not! This weekend stop the world and melt with Every Rom Com as we enter our “L.A. Stories” series with the 1983 cult classic “Valley Girl.” We’ll discuss pioneering female director Martha Coolidge, get into the movie’s bitchin’ soundtrack, and of course dive deep into Valley Girl culture. We’ll also tackle important topics, like “what’s up with that crazy clown doll?” IYKYK
