Molly Ringwald, who famously played in several of director John Hughes's coming-of-age movies in the 1980s, said those films were 'really, really, very white.'
“Those movies, the movies that I am so well known for, they were very much of the time. And if you were to remake that now, I think it would have to be much more diverse. And it would have to be, you know, you couldn’t make a movie that white. Those movies are really, really, very white,” Ringwald“And they don’t really represent what it is to be a teenager in a school in America today, I don’t think,” she added.
“How about we not remake these movies and instead come up with new movies that reflect today’s society?” another social media user“I can see now, Bender sexually harasses Claire throughout the film. When he’s not sexualizing her, he takes out his rage on her with vicious contempt, calling her ‘pathetic,’ mocking her as ‘Queenie,'” she wrote.
