![]() ![]() Wednesday at Ocala's Regal HollywSW 27th Ave.ĭirected by a pre-”Clueless” Amy Heckerling, “Fast Times” remains famous not just for its many memorable characters - shy Mark Ratner, perpetually stoned Jeff Spicoli, bombshell Linda Barrett - but for its troupe of youthful actors, some of whom grew up to become household names. To celebrate its 35th anniversary, the film is screening in theaters nationwide. Based on Cameron Crowe’s true-but-fictionalized account of his year undercover at an unnamed Southern California high school - later revealed to be San Diego’s Clairemont High School - “Fast Times” captured the high jinks and heartbreak of teenage life with a rare truthfulness and poignancy. Few teen movies have earned the widespread popular and critical acclaim of “Fast Times at Ridgemont High,” released in the summer of 1982. ![]()
