Cruel Intentions (1999)




We were barraged with teen movies in the late '90s and while some left much to be desired, this teen adaptation of Dangerous Liaisons stood out to me.  It's smart, sexy, funny and has a kissing scene with even more tongue than Top Gun.

  1. Did the water dry up in Central Park? I know something similar happened to the Dirty Dancing location.

    1. Hey, Tashi. I went in the late fall after boating season and they were probably doing their cleaning. I couldn't believe the lake dried up where Dirty Dancing was filmed. Surreal.

  2. This film has such a good soundtrack. My favourite soundtrack is from, "Valley Girl" (1983).. I wish you would do that film! xo, Tonya

    1. It does have a good soundtrack. I didn't love Valley Girl. Maybe I need to give it another watch.
