Some facts about this movie Pretty in Pink that I read over at Mental Floss. There’s some interesting facts the movie got name Pretty in Pink because Molly Greenwald like the song Pretty in Oink from the Psychedelic Furs. I can’t say I blame her because it is a good song. Howard Deutch wanted Anthony Michael Hall to play Duckie but Molly wasn’t having it. She wanted Robert Downey Jr and she got him. I personally think that was a great choice. I can’t imagine anyone else playing Duckie besides Downey.

I can’t see Anthony Michael Hall playing that character. I wonder if Anthonly and Molly didn‘t dig each other. Maybe he asked her for her panties in real life.

Haha who knows. That would be real funny if that was reason. Maybe she had the hots for Robert at the time.
