    So sad about their death and the way it (apparently) happened.

    The rewatchables podcast decided to have a special episode dedicated to Reiner's works. They picked, of all movies, "The Sure Thing" - a movie
    pitched as a teen sex comedy, except with very little sex, interesting characters, a keen eye for picking actors who exemplified the roles they played, and a 17 year old John Cusack who was emancipated during the
    filming.

    It was his second film after Spinal Tap, and they ranked it one of the
    best 4 teen films - behind Risky Business and ahead of Breakfast Club
    and Ferris Buehler's day off.

    I remember watching that and wanting John Cusack's character's snarky
    sense of humor.
