Friday Flashback Flick

Welcome to Friday Flashback Flick! I'm going to pick a favorite film from back in the day to highlight each Friday (or as many Fridays as I can remember to do it!), and this week's movie is Chances Are starring Robert Downey Jr., Cybill Shepherd, Ryan O'Neal and Mary Stuart Masterson. If you haven't seen it, you must!

Cybill Shepherd plays a pregnant woman whose husband is killed before their baby is born; once he gets to heaven, he begs for a chance to come back to her and his unborn child. The twist is that he returns in the form of Robert Downey Jr., boyfriend to Cybill's daughter (Mary Stuart Masterson). When the daughter brings him home from college, he gets his memory back--and starts coming on to her mom. And wacky romantic high jinks ensue!

I can't tell you how many times I've seen this film, but it never gets old. Robert Downey Jr. is adorable and Cybil and Ryan are in perfect form. Check it out for a fun trip back to the late eighties!

Ciao,
Lucie
