Description

When local rich kid Hubie Pyatt (Barry Tubb) steals and wrecks Binx Davy's beloved motor scooter, Binx's older sister, Billie Jean (Helen Slater, City Slickers), demands the $608 it costs to fix it. Binx shoots Mr. Pyatt (Richard Bradford) by accident and he and Billie Jean flee town accompanied by Billie Jean's girlfriends, Ophelia (Martha Gehman) and Putter (Yeardley Smith, As Good As It Gets). They become fugitives and when they pick up a very willing hostage, Lloyd (Keith Gordon, Christine), they become criminals. Billie Jean becomes a legend in her own time, a symbol of freedom to teenagers everywhere. Includes all-new commentary! Newly remastered.

  • A Movie
It was a move, I watched it on my tv

  • Best movie ever
Glad I had the opportunity to watch this movie with my young adult daughter. She got to see one of my teenage idols.

  • Gripping, Entertaining, and all around worth watching
One of the better movies from Gen-X. Defiantly a cult classic...

  • Fair Is Fair
Ok, I’m sure someone else already came up with that title. But come on, it’s classic. Love this movie from the 80s. It takes you on a fun ride. Gotta admire the strength and courage of Billie Jean.

  • Great movie
This is one of my favorite movies from when I was a young person. Dessert I was so happy to see that Amazon had it and I bought it and I’m very thrilled. It’s got good action and it really is a movie the whole family can watch.

  • Finally, an Official DVD Release
Sure, it's a manufactured on demand DVD, with somewhat generic cover art and you'll never see it available in stores, but it's a real legitimate non-bootleg copy of The Legend of Billie Jean made by Warner Archive. If you're ordering directly from amazon, this is not the same ripped-from-VHS version that's discussed in the other reviews. It's the real deal. For starters, it's 16 x 9 and widescreen and it has audio commentary. It's the only feature and it's accessible through a really generic menu screen, but it's there. You're not going to get any profound insights from it, but Yeardley Smith is charming as always (as she is on the Simpsons DVD commentaries), while Helen Slater provides a little background on the development of the film that I hadn't heard anywhere else. The picture quality is surprisingly pretty solid. I saw this in HD on cable awhile back, and while this may not have the bold presence of high definition, I'd go so far as to say that it's slightly better than version I saw broadcasted. The colors on this DVD are much warmer and richer, and I distinctly remember weird artifacts and damage to the print on the HD one that are simply not present here. There's a thin layer of 80s film grain to it, giving a nice gritty touch to it that it couldn't have had on my old betamax tape. If you are looking for flaws, there is a strange very very thin colored bar on the right side of the frame from time to time. Could possibly be my player, even. You wouldn't have noticed it if I hadn't pointed it out to you, but now you will. And the sound is 2 channel stereo, as it should be. However, all previous music licensing concerns are irrelevant because every song is in tact on this release. So with all the technical stuff out of the way, I guess I'll describe the movie to the few people reading this who don't know. The Legend of Billie Jean is the story of a group of well meaning teenagers in Texas who accidentally become outlaws with a growing fame fueled by the local media. Think something somewhat along the lines of a lighter and more feminine version of The Warriors. It's got a rocking 80s soundtrack, oddball 80s fashion, and wonderfully over the top Southern accents. It's not a "so bad it's good movie," but it makes me giggle nonstop for it's entire runtime - sometimes intentionally, sometimes not. Almost everything Yeardley Smith's character says is a riot. It's my personal Rocky Horror Picture Show and it makes me want to dress up like the characters, yell at the screen, and quote its dialog. I can't say that if you haven't caught this movie at a young age that you can still be indoctrinated into the Billie Jean cult. It may just be for the already converted, but this DVD is much appreciated. ... show more

  • Classic 80’s movie
Watched for the first time in 25 years and it’s definitely an 80’s movie. LOL

  • Great movie of empowerment.
I loved her fortitude and the fact that she never gave up. Every time I am feeling that I am not strong enough to make a difficult decision I watch "The Legend of Biilie Jean" to give me the strength to move ahead and make that dream or situation a reality. It is an amazing movie of female empowerment. ... show more
