BMX Bandits / Australia / 1983

Absolutely joyous film about a trio of teens, clad in neon spandex and, like, the coolest t-shirts you can imagine, who must outmaneuver a gang of criminals. (In mentioning this film one is obligated to note the presence of a 16-year-old Nicole Kidman.) And they do so on BMX bikes, which prescribes many impromptu bike tricks—in one of the many chase scenes, all three kids ramp off the hood of a Volkswagen. And the soundtrack!

    Though I haven’t seen this film since its extensive run on cable in the mid-1980s, the bike chase through the waterslide lives on in my memory, and my family still quotes the thug’s line to Nicole Kidman, “You’re right in the poo now, sister.”
