Fast Times at Ridgemont High -- Academy Award winner Sean Penn leads an all-star cast in this hilarious portrayal of a group of high school students and their most important subjects: sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll.

Debi DiAngelo (Catherine Mary Stewart) is a talented keyboardist and songwriter who hopes to make it big in the New Wave music scene. All seems to be going well when she joins the band of hot singer Niles Dresden (Cameron Dye), but his ruthless ambition taints their affair. Debi also tries to mend her rocky relationship with her father, Nick (Alex Rocco), but her self-esteem takes another beating when she learns that Niles is stealing her songs.

When awkward Clifford (Clayton Rohner) arrives for a date with beautiful Kelly (Virginia Madsen), he finds he's been stood up. But her roommates, Margo (Daphne Zuniga) and Cece (Cynthia Gibb), convince him to drive them around to their favorite clubs. It's a night full of wacky '80s action as Clifford plays chauffeur, Cece chases after punk rock star Bruno X (also played by Rohner) and Kelly gets herself into trouble.

Johnny Rourke (Quinn) is reckless. He breaks the law and girls' hearts with equal cool. Cheerleader Tracey Prescott (Hannah) is reckless too. She dumps her conventional life and boring boyfriend to follow Johnny wherever his dangerous path leads.

Academy Award®-winner Sean Penn leads an all-star cast (Jennifer Jason Leigh, Phoebe Cates, Judge Reinhold, Ray Walston) in this hilarious portrayal of a group of southern California high school students and their most important subjects: sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll. Amy Heckerling's (Clueless) directorial debut brings to life first-time screenwriter Cameron Crowe's (Almost Famous) insider's view of teenage American life in the 1980's. Featuring decade-defining music from The Go-Go's, Oingo Boingo and The Cars, plus film debuts of future stars Nicolas Cage, Eric Stoltz and Anthony Edwards, Fast Times at Ridgemont High remains as fresh and funny today as it was a generation ago when it defined the outrageous and bold teen comedy genre.
