Modine + Madonna = Vision Quest
Like so many great 80s films, Vision Quest had a bevvy of up-and-coming actors and great music, plus an ongoing underdog theme that seemed to resonate in a lot of 80s films.
Starring Matthew Modine, Michael Schoeffling (Jake! from Sixteen Candles), Daphne Zuniga, Forest Whitaker, Linda Fiorentino and Madonna, it’s hard to say what it was about Vision Quest that captivated fans the most–the underrated acting abilities of Modine, or the music of Madonna, who contributed “Crazy For You” to both in the film and on the soundtrack.
Speaking of the soundtrack, who can forget “Only the Young” by Journey? And “Hot Blooded” by Foreigner? Nice.
Cute boys. Hot music. So 80s.
