Goonies is probably one of the best depictions of real-world kids in a movie.


Watching the Goonies again right now and just enjoying the energy and craziness of the cast. The kids all act likes - the casual swearing, the constantly talking over one another, the wild stories, sarcasm, and overal comradery of the cast.I remember reading that the director loved the cast but vowed never to work with so many kids again due to their wild energy, pranks, and overall hyper nature that age had but in the end, it worked for the film.Nothing seems forced or overly scripted. Their friendships feel natural and authentic. Mouth being the sarcastic asshole, Chunk constantly whining and exaggerating, Data's frustration and babbling...(love his rant about falling through the floor).Hell there is just this fun moment where Mikey and Data put their arms around each other and start skipping together while counting the 100 paces. Its a funny and cute background moment that just cements their friendship without force feeding it to the audience.I feel the closest thing we got to this was IT CHAPTER 1 but even then they lack the energy that is seen in Goonies.What is your favorite interaction between the characters? via /r/movies https://ift.tt/3wmn7JA
