What movie is this?

[now I see]

That's a whole lotta star power from one single highschool east of Beverly Hills, its great to have such people come from your home town, and you too, George!  

I remember the Uncle Buck scenes with the drill and the hatchet, and the comments to the principal with the mole, but can't seem to recall the one with the golf club though...very cute kids and funny movie.

but can't seem to recall the one with the golf club though...

After Buck picks up his niece, they get "Bug" out of the trunk. Buck tees off at him with a driver. (The actual "weapons," I suppose, were the golf balls.)

I'll have to watch it again, my memory is failing me..

Ok, here's the new one:

Rebel teen moves from the big city to a small town, he takes it upon himself to initiate a battle to abolish outmoded town rules and revitalize the spirit of the repressed townspeople.

"Erin Brockovich"?

George

[Raf]

Nope. While that was one aspect of the plot of Erin brockovich, the summary I gave actually IS the WHOLE plot of the movie I have in mind.

[WordWolf]

"The Legend of Billy Jean"?

[Raf]

Take the description at face value. Billie Jean is not my movie. She's just an actress who went on to become supergirl.

[now I see]

Grease?

[Raf]

Bingo.

[now I see]

When being a slut finally pays off for a slightly bad girl with the heart of gold, she takes the money to follow her dreams and goes back to the straight and narrow, and even gets the prince.
