I'm thinking of renting "Foxes" (1980), which starred Jodie Foster, Sally Kellerman, Scott Baio, and Cherie Currie (of the rock band The Runaways). All I know is that it was the first film directed by Adrian Lyne, who would later direct Flashdance, Nine And A Half Weeks, and Fatal Attraction.

If I remember correctly, it was the last (or next-to-last) movie Jodie made before she became enrolled in Yale University as a full-time student, although she continued to do movies during summer breaks.

So, to the group, is "Foxes" worth renting/seeing? And what was it about?

it basically focuses on the lives of these friends and it's probably Adrian Lyne's best movie, with a great soundtrack and performances (Jodie's her usual terrific self). It drags a little near the end, but aside from that it's very good.

Lollapoe:

Thanks for the input! My guess is that the movie is the 80's earliest example of what nowadays would be called a "chick flick".
