'Pretty in Pink': A Little More Quiz


I tried not to duplicate the other quizzes. This is my favorite movie, so some of the questions are easy, but some are a little harder and cover a little more than the events of the movie.

Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. What has Andie made for the outfit that Benny and Kate make fun of?

Answer: Everything but the shoes

Her dad tells her how beautiful she is in the morning, and then she hears at school, 'Where did you get your clothes? A five and dime store?'
2. Whose album does Blane buy in his first encounter with Andie in Trax?

Answer: Steve Lawrence

He asks her opinion on records trying to get the courage to ask her out. The record he picked was obviously a joke, but he ended up getting it anyway because he was so nervous.
3. What is Iona wearing when she is first introduced?

Answer: Rocker babe wear

'Applause, applause, applause,' she says after she finishes the window display. Her versatility just made the movie.
4. Where is 'Pretty in Pink' set?

Answer: Chicago

Movie was shot in L.A., but set in Chicago.
5. What does Duckie do if he really likes a girl?

Answer: He rides his bike by her house

He tells Iona 'When I really have it solid for a girl, I'll ride by her house on my bike. I'll do it like, a hundred times in a day. It's really...it's intense. Iona replies back 'You ever park?' Duckie says, 'I'm kind of a drive-by kind of guy.'
6. What club does Duckie try to get into to see Andie?

Answer: Cats

Andrew Dice Clay plays the bouncer, and Duckie finally gets in with Iona. The Rave-Ups provided the on-stage entertainment.
7. Which is NOT the setting for one of Andie and Blane's dates?

Answer: At an upscale restaurant

They went to the party and the club, and later go to the stables. In the original script Andie, Duckie, and Iona go to a nice place for lunch (making the first two uncomfortable) but the scene was cut.
8. What was Blane's excuse for not taking Andie to the prom?

Answer: He asked someone else and forgot

He avoids both her and the issue until she confronts him, and then he weakly says, 'A month ago I asked someone else and I forgot about it.' Then he goes to prom alone.
9. What is the prom song?

Answer: 'If You Leave' by OMD

The song was played at the beginning of the movie and during the prom. Once again John Hughes wrote and produced a movie with a fun soundtrack!
10. What star did NOT have a role in the film?

Answer: Anthony Michael Hall

Hall turned down the role of Duckie. Swanson was the 'Duckette' at {prom;} Gershon was one of the 'rich {kids';} and Zappa played Andie's club friend, Simon.
11. Who did not live to see the release of the film?

Answer: The girl who played Jena

The movie is dedicated to Alexa Kenin (Jena) and Bruce Weintraub (a set decorator), both of whom died before the release. The cast was told that Alexa's death was asthma-related, but she was actually murdered under mysterious circumstances.
12. What other movie was filmed at the high school where 'Pretty in Pink' was shot?

Answer: Grease

Thought this was a fun and interesting question. Thank goodness Duckie was the only one to break into song, even though Molly Ringwald is a singer, and had a record made when she was in grade school.
13. Which later John Hughes-written movie uses the same theme of 'rich kid and not-so-rich kid falling in love,' but reverses the genders of the characters involved?

Answer: Some Kind of Wonderful

This movie switches the roles, with the guy being in love with the girl who runs with the rich kids.
14. Who shares a birthday with Molly Ringwald?

Answer: John Hughes

Both Molly Ringwald and John Hughes were born on February 18th, eighteen years apart.
15. Aside from 'Pretty in Pink' and 'Mannequin,' what 1980's movie did Andrew McCarthy and James Spader star in?

Answer: Less Than Zero

The characters weren't too far off from 'Pretty in Pink'. Spader and McCarthy were still playing rich kids partying -- they were just a little older, and Spader had turned to being a drug dealer. There is also a rumour that Molly Ringwald, Andrew McCarthy, Jon Cryer, and James Spader will be in a 'Pretty in Pink' sequel, in which Duckie is a nightclub owner, and Steff will do something to put Andie and Blane in financial difficulties. No word on if it will become a reality.
