The film was directed by Howard Deutch, written by John Hughes, and starred Molly Ringwald who appeared in three of Hughes iconic 80s movies. It's still much better and more honest than most high school, but it's certainly not his greatest entry. 'Pretty in Pink' has solidified itself as an iconic romantic comedy since it was first released in 1986. Pretty in Pink gets a passing grade on the John Hughes scale.
