It was the first time, I watched this beautiful story of first heartbreak. The real reason to watch the film was KERRI GREEN.
Back in those days, she was my crush.
Seen her work in The Goonies, I searched for her filmography and Lucas appeared second on the list. After a lot of browsing struggle, I downloaded and then watched it more closely. I couldn't escape out of the universe created by David Seltzar.
Next day, I watched it again with my brother to let him explore the emotions of first love.
Over the years, I watched this film countless times with closed observation.
To me, Lucas is a story of first heartbreak, it is a story of challenging your destiny, it is a story of a try-hard and hard until you fail, it is a story of changing perceptions, It is a story of innocence.
The basic foundations of the film plot are the emotions possed by its primary characters. I've never been to High School nor Loved but Lucas is a wormhole that leads back to my School Life, to the age of innocence. It is an accurate depiction of American high school life. Our Cultures and Trends were different unlike American or British High Schools yet I felt the Journey of Lucas Blye. David Seltzar weaved the story magnificently that the viewers got a feeling of trapped in the story.
Back In those days, Corey Haim was a struggling teenage artist but he acted brilliantly. His portrayal was sincere, you really got the sad vibes for Lucas Blye.
Kerri Lee Green as Margaret "Maggie" was the charm of this film. Her character had some beautiful traits of a woman and green presented it onscreen effortlessly. You can't take your eyes from her. The innocence in her eyes, compassion in her voice was class. I must say her shyness was evergreen. Watching her performance still makes me breathless. Seems like, a girl fallen in love with me, may have her traits.
Charlie Sheen was Good as Cappie, I read somewhere that he was the heartthrob of the 1980s and he got himself screwed.
Lucas was the Debut film of Wioanaa Ryder and she excelled, dialogues were limited but eyes were the windows to her acting caliber. The way she looked at Lucas was Breathtaking, the delights of first love. Supporting Cast did a phenomenal job.
The cinematography of the film is wonderful, I must say Lucas is a trapdoor to 1980's life. Reynaldo Villalobos makes this film, a masterpiece. Melodies of Dave Grusin define the time dimension.
Lucas was released on 28 March 1986, after 10 years 31st March 1996 was the day when the story of my life begins so, maybe that's the reason this film makes me nostalgic about time and life.
