SYNOPSIS
Sixteen Candles sees Samantha Baker (Molly Ringwald) is approaching her sixteenth birthday, but sees little to celebrate about: her family have, in any case, forgotten her big day, and she is suffering from a severe bout of unrequited love. Worse still, the object of her affections is being courted by the school’s most desirable student – can Samantha trust her quarry to value brains over beauty?
