Close to a dozen years ago, I was dragged by friends to see
Varsity Blues . I have seen
All the Right Moves,
Fast Times at Ridgemont High,
Risky Business, and
Ferris Buuller’s Day Off. Teen fantasy lives have not been done on the screen even passably as well as they did in the early ’80’s, so my enthusiasm was nil.
Until I first met Ali Larter: She left an impression:

Not enough of an impression to get me to watch the recently canceled
Heroes passed her first stripping scene, but enough to land her on my all time favorites list.
