An affable teen who "never gets dates" makes elaborate and expensive plans to entertain a popular girl, unaware that his tomboy best friend has loved him all along. In Some Kind of Wonderful, John Hughes captures the emotional complexities of high school life, exploring themes of class, identity, and unspoken affection. The film follows Keith (Eric Stolz), an artistic outsider striving to win over popular girl Amanda Jones (Lea Thompson), while overlooking the loyalty and love of his tomboy friend Watts (Mary Stuart Masterson). With nuanced performances and a story that avoids easy sentimentality, the film stands as a defining entry in the 1980s teen drama genre.

Device works as expected. Only concern is that the screen had many faint straight lines on the screen. It could just be from the packaging itself. If you care about “mint condition,” part of the barcode on the box was marked out in Sharpie. Very fast delivery to US and arrived completely safe despite being in a bubble mailer.
Splendidly politically incorrect by today’s standards but a bit of fun. Set in Nigeria but I suspect filmed in East a Africa - the fever trees in the wildlife scenes give it away
