It also had the same writer and same director!!

John Hughes had a crew of actors, and a storytelling style. Some Kind of Wonderful wasn't the apex of his craft, but he made a ton of beloved movies.
Stoltz was more pretty than talented [though he ironically got his big break under makeup as Rocky Dennis in Mask], and his 'brooding teen' was a bad fit for BTTF's McFly, who needed Fox's manic incredulous energy to match the madcap adventurous narrative. |
Yep, you are right of course.
I know these things, sure. But I didn't remember specifics like name of movie etc.. but/so I'm not going to Google everything I type, like a time consuming research paper.
