Deborah Foreman and Nicolas Cage in the 80s classic VALLEY GIRL

Marking one of the first screen appearances of future Academy Award winner Nicolas Cage and capturing one of the 1980s most iconic phases, Metro Goldwyn Mayer (MGM) is releasing its 1983 hit teen comedy Valley Girl across all digital platforms for the first time ever, beginning today. Directed by Martha Coolidge and starring Cage, Deborah Foreman, Michelle Meyrink, Elizabeth Daily, Cameron Dye and Michael Bowen, the film was originally released in theaters on April 29, 1983. 

Valley Girl  is a sweetly romantic slice of 1980s nostalgia you don’t want to miss. When Julie (Deborah Foreman) dumps her preppy boyfriend, the last thing she expects is to find love with the rockin’ Randy (Cage). The future’s open wide for Julie … but when her disapproving friends find Randy to be grody to the max, she is caught up in a culture clash between her Valley lifestyle and her Hollywood punk. 

Valley Girl  is available for purchase today across major digital platforms including Amazon Prime Video, iTunes, VUDU and FandangoNOW among others.
