Tim Williams, Executive Director of Oregon Film says: “This celebration is dedicated to the amazing fans and the special places where it was filmed. We hope [it] will find [fans] on location reliving one of the most beloved coming-of-age stories of the 1980s. We’re so lucky as a state to have these creative partners to bring together a community to celebrate a film like this. It’s always such a pleasure to remind people of the deep and exciting history this state has with film, and then gather together in places like Astoria to showcase famous Oregon locations.”
